    So it seems for the third time in history, we are on the brink of war with America. Like the 1930s though, there seems to be a media black-out about it, except of course for Russia Today, which is pretty much the only news outlet I trust these days as they don’t give a f*ck about corporation bullies.

    The American government has been bought by corporations and have been ordered to force through a global law called ACTA. This is an anti-privacy law that would hand police powers to corporations, giving them the right of search & seize of every single home of any country that signs ACTA. America; Canada; New Zealand & Australia have already signed ACTA (though they did not want to, America told these countries that if they didn’t then they would apply economic sanctions and cut off all free trade).

    By search & seize, I mean, they’ll have the right to come knock on your door and demand to search your computer. Without a warrant and without suspicion, that means they can just randomly go through every computer in the country. If you have any software, music, games, films etc on there that you haven’t paid the corporations to have on there – you’ll go to prison. If you refuse to let them search your computer – you’ll go to prison and have it confiscated, searched, and then have years added onto your sentence if anything is found.

    America told us the same, that we face economic sanctions, expecting us to fall in line too, but they forget one thing. For the first time in my life I’m glad that we’re in the European Union, our Parliament isn’t allowed to apply new laws in the United Kingdom without first consulting the European Union to ensure we aren’t in breach of any EU Legislation. The EU has turned around and said ACTA is a massive violation of human rights and an illegal invasion of privacy, and so we had no choice but to tell America NO.

    America today has stormed out of the United Nations meeting about ACTA in a red-faced tantrum because of the European Union rejecting. The problem here is, America has been paid to force ACTA through at all costs. It is NOT an option for them to just go “oh okay you don’t wanna sign fair enough”, they HAVE to force it through or face serious consequences themselves from the corporations that rule them.

    The UK, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Greece, Wisconsin & Wall Street have seen civil unrest and ‘occupations’ by protesters this week against the proposed invasion of privacy and the threat of handing our lives over to the corporations. Yet there has been an official media black-out declared, which caught the interest of Russia Today, who hurrily deployed teams of news broadcasters through-out Europe and America to expose the stinking corruption of Western ‘Democracy’.

    The European Union and America may very well soon be exchanging missiles if this escalates to the point where the EU tells America to go f*ck its self, and America is left with no option but to threaten us with war if we do not sign ACTA as they cripple under the pressure of their corporation masters. The US is used to dealing with small countries who would buckle under such a threat, but the European Union? 15 member states with state of the art technology and a combined military that is twice the size of America’s? Somehow I don’t see the EU shaking in its boots, and don’t believe it’ll buckle.

    I am very surprised and shocked to say………… LONG LIVE THE EUROPEAN UNION. Fly the blue & gold flag with pride and say NO TO CORPORATION DICTATORSHIP!

    Bring it on you Yank b*stards

    Grow up, Lucy and stop spouting sh*te. So you’re OK with violations of human rights & invasion of privacy? What next, going to make lies up about everyone who is against genocide? Besides, what has that got to do with films, music & software? The corporations aren’t concerned with such trivial stuff as who you chat to. You could have the Anarchist’s Cook Book on your HD for all they care and they’d ignore it, they’re only interested in whether you have software/music/videos on there.

    There’s nothing illegal on my computer, except perhaps a handful of MP3s. But that is not the concern nor the point. The point is since when do corporations have the right to police powers of search & seize? What does this lead to? Security cameras installed in our homes monitored by advertising agencies? It’s a very slippery slope you’re supporting/all for.

    Have you ever burnt a CD off? Have you ever copied a CD onto your harddrive? If so, you too would be imprisoned from a simple randomised search & seize operation, they don’t even need a report or suspicion. They would just go from street to street one day at a time.

    No he didn’t. He had a copy/paste from a rumour site run by an anti-BNP group, which to be fair back then I was a fair and legit target, and if you visit the source of that ‘story’, Lancaster Unity, you would see a more recent article providing evidence of her telling everyone, including myself, that she was 20.

    So get your facts right before spouting sh*te and sticking up for your little boyfriend Prime.

    You’re wrong. You obviously haven’t kept up to date with privacy law news have you?

    It is now illegal to rip CDs onto your machine. If you want the songs on the machine, you have to pay for the MP3s from valid website stores. Copying the album at all, for personal use or not, is illegal.

    Because the corporations argue that you can’t prove you ripped the MP3s from the CD, and you can’t prove that you haven’t sent the MP3s to other people. Suspicion alone is enough to seize and prosecute.

    I’m surprised you’re in favour of this breach of privacy and human rights, the Republic of Ireland’s government is thoroughly against it and is standing with the EU in protest.

    For personal use is perfectly acceptable, otherwise all iPods and MP3 players are immediately illegal.

    This is absolutely paranoid bóllöcks by the way.
