EU ACTA Doc Shows Plans For Global DMCA, 3 Strikes

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the works-for-baseball dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The European Commission analysis of ACTA's Internet chapter has leaked, indicating that the US is seeking to push laws that extend beyond the WIPO Internet treaties and beyond current European Union law. The document contains detailed comments on the US secret copyright treaty proposal, confirming the desire to promote a 'three-strikes and you're out' policy, a Global DMCA, harmonized contributory copyright infringement rules, and the establishment of an international notice-and-takedown policy."

    What the fuck did you, and every other brainless hippy expect?

    Did you actually think that a politician from CHICAGO cares about you?

    You actually bought that shit? That every Chicago politician is corrupt, except this guy? You and the rest of America chose to ignore all of the signs.

    Admit it, you went gay for the man, and voted for him on the basis of his winning smile and ability to feed you shit.

    And you are now eating that very same shit, so smile and call it ice cream.

    A corrupt, braindead, and incompetent government is perfectly representative of the US voters, so they have the government they deserve.
