[QUOTE=FlashFireSix;24407340]So they are going to come to my house and grab any media storage device and look for pirated things? Thats just invasion of privacy i cant see this going on for very long.[/QUOTE] That's exactly what I was thinking.
ANOTHER thread?
[QUOTE=FlashFireSix;24407340]So they are going to come to my house and grab any media storage device and look for pirated things? Thats just invasion of privacy i cant see this going on for very long.[/QUOTE] I'm afraid people will become complacent and actually allow this shit to happen. It's very possible.
[QUOTE=bigbigzubra;24407218]Use a proxy. Problem solved. [editline]09:58AM[/editline] If you're pirating like 50 gigs of music[/QUOTE] They can't find me I'm behind 8 proxies. It's your ISP dumbass, they're still gonna see it.
[QUOTE=FreeThinker;24407154]You're a conservative furry[/QUOTE] seriously, what makes you think i'm a conservative.
[QUOTE=bigbigzubra;24407218]Use a proxy. Problem solved. [editline]09:58AM[/editline] If you're pirating like 50 gigs of music[/QUOTE] Yeah what about when you want to take an ipod on the plane?
I hope there will be huge protests in the affected countries
[QUOTE=The Mighty Boatman;24407390]seriously, what makes you think i'm a conservative.[/QUOTE] That's the second time you've said that.
this shit is actually worrying me. i'm not sure i trust the general population to not let this happen. [editline]03:13PM[/editline] [QUOTE=poopsicle;24407419]That's the second time you've said that.[/QUOTE] it's the second time i haven't been given an answer by the poster of that comment or the 6+ people who seem to agree with him. i just don't get how telling a guy that saying he's going to promote piracy on facepunch is a bad idea makes me a conservative.
[QUOTE=The Mighty Boatman;24407426] it's the second time i haven't been given an answer by the poster of that comment or the 6+ people who seem to agree with him.[/QUOTE] Yeah that really pisses me off when people do that.
We could have our computers taken away because we downloaded a game off of Steam.
seriously, if this passes then we won't be able to go online without being arrested for piracy.
Anyone from the UK up for a protest?
How does the Anti-acta tribomb work?
Glad Brazil isn't in that list But it will still give a reason for game companies to raise their prices, as pirating will be much more difficult (this based on the hypotesis that it ends up working, somehow.)
[QUOTE=FlashFireSix;24407340]So they are going to come to my house and grab any media storage device and look for pirated things? Thats just invasion of privacy i cant see this going on for very long.[/QUOTE] It's an intercontinental treaty. It ignores all that shit.
[QUOTE=Smut Nippler;24407386]Just a friendly reminder for the people who think this will affect Europe as a whole. It won't. It will only affect the member countries of the European Union, so if you live in, say, Norway(which has declined EU membership several times) or Croatia(which is only a EU candidate, and won't be granted membership for several more years), you're off the hook, at least for the time being.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=myng;24406972] 6. If ACTA is implemented, privacy on the internet is no longer a given. Internet Service Providers will be forced to monitor what websites you visit and what you type, search and do. People have a basic right to privacy that this treaty clearly ignores. Are you willing to pay this price? [/QUOTE] To be honest, this sounds like the worst part. I guess it's time to put a 24 character password on my computer now. If the police ever decide to break down my door I'm not giving them shit.
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;24407533]Now i wish we had the british independant party[/QUOTE] We do
If it's anything like the Digital Economy Bill for the UK, it's all a threat and nothing will fucking change at all. [B]At. All.[/B]
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;24407533]Now i wish we had the british independant party[/QUOTE] so you'd rather we be cut off from the EU just because of some idiots trying to create an internet thought police? yeah, i'm sort of inclined to agree.

All.[/B][/QUOTE] this is nothing like the DEB.
I do wonder if there will be a protest outside the houses of parliament over this instead of the useless shit they normally protest over. There better fucking be. You would think the LibDems would complain about this, but then again Clegg is so far up Cameron's ass right now.

Sadly the kind of people that pirate everything are the kind of people that sit on their ass all day and complain about everything, but I do hope some people have the guts to protest about this :ohdear: Wait no the facebook page gives me hope that annonymous might do something about it, but I doubt it.
[QUOTE=rukiddingme;24407411]Yeah what about when you want to take an ipod on the plane?[/QUOTE] I don't use an ipod seeing how I can just put all the music I want on a minisd card and put that in my phone.
[QUOTE=Ascensive;24406990]Would this mean all of Europe? If so, I'm fucked :ohdear:[/QUOTE] Norway! :eng101: I think they are still not a part. Right?
Oh God I'm getting worried now :ohdear: Well I'm currently doing that tribomb thing to help do my part so we'll see how that goes.
