In light of the recent acts of SOPA, PIPA, ANDD, and the ACTA laws/bills, the time has come to not only show ourselves and our opinions to the world but to speak them as well.

Once that happens anyone caught crossing the border with music, movies, TV shows, or any kind of possibly pirated material on their MP3 Player, Iphone or Laptop can be arrested. Even if you just jail broke your Iphone you could be put in jail for up to five years. Videos on Youtube will be removed as well as accounts and the people all across Ireland and the United Kingdoms will be put in jail. And they're not taking into consideration that some of these supposed 'pirates' are college students and children. Children that might not even be aware they committed a crime by having a friend

Okay, though I'm a bit shy in posting this (I don't know if I am good explaining or wording this).
Here's my reasons why I don't support ACTA.
For a bill that's suppose to prevent piracy, here's what it will do:
Destroy freedom of speech - Especially on the internet.
Under ACTA, the government and the elite will censor what they considered as 'Copywrite Infringement.' By shutting down sites. They will have control over the information and we would be in the dark(The government has been meaning ), this would effect news sites and information sites as well, since they can't spread and/or report. Our blogs and online journals will be censored as well. All of this goes against America's Constitution of Freedom of Speech amendment.
Stifle trade, especially of generic medicines -

Open mouths gagged, voices silenced,
Placated serenly with guns in our backs,
Aristans' fingers broken, thinkers' minds corroded...
Placed upon the hot coals: books, paints, a flute...
In one short blaze, all are gone.
Patiently we await our turn.
A single shot, and we are free.
