> Last week, 3 million of us beat back America's attack on our Internet! --
> but there is an even bigger threat out there, and our global movement for
> freedom online is perfectly poised to kill it for good.
>
> *ACTA -- a global treaty -- could allow corporations to censor the
> Internet.* Negotiated in secret by a small number of rich countries and
> corporate powers, it would set up a shadowy new anti-counterfeiting body to
> allow private interests to police everything that we do online and impose
> massive penalties -- even prison sentences -- against people they say have
> harmed their business.
>
> *Europe is deciding right now whether to sign ACTA -- and without them,
> this global attack on Internet freedom will collapse.* We know they have
> opposed ACTA before, but some members of Parliament are wavering -- *let's
> give them the push they need to reject the treaty.* Sign the petition --
> we'll do a spectacular delivery in Brussels when we reach 500,000

> It's outrageous -- governments of four-fifths of the world’s people were
> excluded from the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) negotiations
> and *unelected bureaucrats have worked closely with corporate lobbyists
> to craft new rules and a dangerously powerful enforcement regime.* ACTA
> would initially cover the US, EU and 9 other countries, then be rolled out
> across the world. But if we can get the EU to say no now, the treaty will
> lose momentum and could stall for good.
>
> The oppressively strict regulations could mean people everywhere are
> punished for simple acts such as sharing a newspaper article or uploading a
> video of a party where copyrighted music is played. Sold as a trade
> agreement to protect copyrights, *ACTA could also ban lifesaving generic
> drugs and threaten local farmers' access to the seeds they need.* And,
> amazingly, the ACTA committee will have carte blanche to change its own
> rules and sanctions with no democratic scrutiny.
>
> *Big corporate interests are pushing hard for this, but the EU Parliament
> stands in the way.* Let's send a loud call to Parliamentarians to face
> down the lobbies and stand firm for Internet freedom. Sign now and send to
> everyone you know:
