| 1258698 | 2012-02-11 23:32:00 | old.news.yahoo.com Perhaps we (NZ) should have done something similar, instead of bending over and getting reamed by the Yanks. :angry This is why the FBI can now order our police to do their bidding (Kim Dotcom), we apparently have no autonomy (en.wikipedia.org) in this area, our @rse-licking politicians having signed it away. Believe me, this is just the thin end of the wedge. By the way, I have never stolen copyrighted software or data , or advocate anybody else doing so. Piracy is performed on the high seas, involving ships and lethal weapons (ask Peter Blake), to equate that with data theft is patently ridiculous. |

| 1258700 | 2012-02-12 04:37:00 | Too late now. From what I understand, as far as NZ is concerned, its already been signed and is a done deal. I hadn't heard of it untl a couple of weeks ago via an overseas website. Too bad the gov didn't see fit to tell us.. |

| 1258704 | 2012-02-21 20:27:00 | You could ACTA up over the Trans Pacifc Partnership instead Just as secret as ACTA was but *far* wider reaching http://tppwatch.org/ |
