Anti-Counterfeiting Deal Aims For Global DMCA

An anonymous reader writes "Negotiations on the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement continue on Wednesday as the US, Europe, Japan, Korea, Canada, Australia, and a handful of other countries secretly negotiate a copyright treaty that includes statutory damages, new search and seizure power, and anti-camcording rules. Now the substance of the Internet chapter has leaked, with information that the proposed chapter would create a 'Global DMCA' with anti-circumvention rules, liability for ISPs, and the possibility of three-strikes and you're out requirements."

Re:Americans

Canadians and Peruvians aren't "Americans". People from the United States of Mexico are called Mexicans, people from the United States of America are called "Americans". And you were modded "funny" because you are being incorrectly pedantic while spelling a four letter word wrong.

Spell checking is not a good substitute for proofreading.
