Say NO to ACTA

  • 0:01 - 0:06
    Can you imagine your Internet Service Provider policing everything you do online?
  • 0:07 - 0:13
    Can you imagine generic drugs that could save lives being banned?
  • 0:14 - 0:21
    Can you imagine seeds that could feed 1000's being controlled and withheld in the name of patents?
  • 0:21 - 0:25
    This will become reality with ACTA.
  • 0:25 - 0:29
    ACTA is the Anti Counterfeiting Trade Agreement
  • 0:29 - 0:33
    Disguised as a Trade Agreement, ACTA goes much,
  • 0:33 - 0:36
    much further than that.
  • 0:36 - 0:43
    For the past 3 years, ACTA has been negotiated in secret by 39 countries.
  • 0:43 - 0:47
    But the negotiators are not democratically elected representatives.
  • 0:47 - 0:52
    They don't represent us, but they are deciding laws behind our backs.
  • 0:52 - 0:56
    Bypassing our democratic processes,
  • 0:56 - 1:01
    they impose new criminal sanctions to stop online filesharing.
  • 1:01 - 1:05
    ACTA aims to make Internet Service & Access Providers
  • 1:05 - 1:09
    legally responsible for what their users do online,
  • 1:09 - 1:12
    turning them into Private Copyright Police & Judge,
  • 1:12 - 1:15
    censoring their networks.
  • 1:15 - 1:21
    The chilling effects on free speech would be terrible.
  • 1:21 - 1:23
    In the name of patents,
  • 1:23 - 1:29
    ACTA would give large corporations the power to stop generic drugs before they reach the people who need them,
  • 1:29 - 1:34
    and to stop the use of certain seeds for crops.
  • 1:34 - 1:38
    The European Parliament will soon vote on ACTA.
  • 1:38 - 1:41
    This vote will be the occasion to say no
  • 1:41 - 1:42
    once and for all
  • 1:42 - 1:45
    to this dangerous treaty.
  • 1:45 - 1:51
    As citizens, we must urge our representatives to reject ACTA.
  • 1:52 - 1:56
    NO TO ACTA.
