Anyone heard of ACTA?

Yes I've heard oh it.

It will log everyone's credit card data in one place, perfect target for anonymous, and it will be able to do what SOPA and PIPA would do..

ACTA is scarier than SOPA/PIPA ever was.  I mean conducted in secret?  Great, wonderful, good job government!  Bills and treaties like this can effectively turn whole populations into criminals and terrorists.  I mean if the government doesn't like something they can just scream "COPYRIGHT B-OTCH!" and shut it down.  Yay!

Mhm and who knows if there are more like those still in secret? ::)
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

Currently playing Pokemon XY/ORAS/Shuffle and Clash of Clans and testing out PokemonRevolutionOnline and Dragonmon Hunter....
Also, forum notification emails are not getting in my inbox... again...

They did a pretty good job of hiding ACTA O_O Seriously? The organization that would be made from this would be outside the jurisdiction of the UN, which I would consider a human rights organization (I mean I could be wrong about that though...)
And internet privacy but beyond that it attacks generic medicines ?? WTFudge?

...and "national security" is the excuse for keeping the actual legal text secret? Just how horrible IS the legislation???
