NO ACTA!!!

Dear readers, this post has little to do with art and artists but the blog is a way of spreading information. Today´s post is about ACTA. Many of you out there dont know much about it due to the restriction and the censorship in public media. Please read carefully ACTA affects YOU!
ACTA is: 
- The Anti-CounterfeitingTrade Agreement 
- Has been planned confidentially since 2008 by Japan, the U.S., the EU, etc. Possible ratification will be in June 2012.
- Will affect e.g.:
    - File sharing
    - Generic medicine 
    - GM Seeds
Hinders freedom of speech and the individual privacy
censoring/monitoring the internet
Do we trust the government to monitor our moves on the net?!
Please read about it and take action at once!!!
P.S there will be a demonstration against ACTA in Gothenburg/ Göteborg on Saturday 2 pm be there and spread the knowledge! 


The information on this page is from a TOK presentation which was done by me and my classmates Annie and Alma.
