Internet access isn't a liberty
[QUOTE=ThePuska;24409881]Internet access isn't a liberty[/QUOTE]
Internet access is information access.
[QUOTE=Mega1mpact;24409890]isn't it illegal to look at what someone is dong on the internet by spying on them!?

[QUOTE=FreeThinker;24409914]Internet access is information access.[/QUOTE]
this.
the internet is currently the world's only unbiased information outlet.

I picked the wrong word, but regardless you should never sit back and allow things that could potentially take the world down a bad road.

unle ACTA doesn't care as long as it means you don't pirate an episode of firefly that you didn't plan on pirating in the first place.
Acta is bullshit, just deal with it
If this get's passed then piracy is going to turn into criminal acts.
Think twilight disks made outside the covered countries.
It's just a bunch of people in suits trying to make a living not giving a damn about the industry.
The industry is trying to re-invent itself. But it takes time. Anti piracy measures just stop progress being made.

That's wrong.
There's lots of bias. You're mostly getting information written in languages you understand. That information is written by biased people and even further filtered by the sites that choose whether or not to link to that information. There are web pages for everything, but their (in)accessibility creates a bias.
So if I pirate a song, ACTA can stop me at the airport and deny me access to a place?
Fuck you.
[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;24407004]This is the 3rd thread on the subject (the other 2 being directly below this one), we get the point already.[/QUOTE]
More like the sixth, there were a bunch of threads a few months back one by me.

But you're getting your information from millions of biased people with millions of biased opinions, and generally you can view any of those opinions and side with one accordingly on the net. You make it out as if the Internet's some centralised machine where there's only one opinion on a given subject you can view at any given time.

this is correct, but we have access to MILLIONS of biased sources. through these millions of biased sources we can create a clearer picture.

The police are searching through your computer at the airport for no reason, just deal with it.
Your ISP is watching every word you type on the internet, just deal with it.
You get a criminal record from having 3 pirated songs on your ipod, just deal with it.
The police bust down your door for "suspected criminal activity", just deal with it.
Your favorite websites get shut down for "copyright infringement", just deal with it.
If the general public doesn't know about this, then they'll continue pirating, etc, and half the country is criminalised.
[QUOTE=CheeseMan;24410038]Dude just deal with it[/QUOTE]

This is really starting to get serious, I am bombing google as I type this.
I am in fear that raids will be held on government websites and irl.
Hopefully facepunch stays as it is and not controlled by big corporations or monitored by federal police.
Please let that stay the same.

Who the fuck pirates music these days, it's not worth having all the files on your computer when you can just use Spotify and feel good about yourself that it's legal.
