Poland signed ACTA.

You have no idea how sick of my own country I am now.

Thank you, brothers and sisters, for everything we tried to do.

Petition the European Parliament to review and push back ACTA →

le-captain:

chocotaur:

EVERYONE PAY ATTENTION.

THIS IS THE OFFICIAL CHANNEL FOR ADDRESSING THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT ABOUT ACTA.

If you’re an European citizen, this is what you CAN do:

Send a petition to the European Parliament where you explain, briefly but thoroughly, why it needs to push back ACTA and demand a more transparent debate of its contents, as well as demand that the agreement be more precise on its contents, specially those involving criminal action or any activity that would affect net neutrality, freedom of speech, or privacy.

How to write the petition:

1. Read the official ACTA text.

2. Make it a three-paragraph request, easy to read (be thorough, but BRIEF, and don’t be superfluous). Keep a clear flow:

a. Introduce yourself, and briefly tell them what the content of your request is (AKA “I would like to request the European Parliament to vote against ACTA.”)

b. Explain your major concerns about ACTA. Make sure to have your facts well-founded. Quote the law if you can, or at least the sources from where your concerns arise.

c. Wrap your petition letter up reasserting your concern.

3. Remember to BE POLITE. You are addressing an official body of government. 

THINGS TO REMEMBER:

- Be polite. Be official. Be serious.

- If, as a petitioner, you do not wish your name to be disclosed, the European Parliament will respect your privacy, but such requests must be clear and explicitly mentioned in your petition.

- Remember, petitions must deal with: 

  • your rights as a European citizen as set out in the Treaties,
  • environmental matters,
  • consumer protection,
  • free movement of persons, goods and services, internal market,
  • employment issues and social policy,
  • recognition of professional qualifications,
    other problems related to the implementation of EU law.

SO, focus your petition in such a way that it highlights how ACTA might affect any of those aspects.

Finally, you can also send GROUP PETITIONS by POST mail. Collect signatures and send it to:

  • European Parliament
  • The President of the European Parliament
  • Rue Wiertz
    B-1047 BRUSSELS

    The European Parliament is also on Facebook. If you have a facebook account you may want to take petitions there as well:

Who can submit a petition? You can submit a petition if you are:

  • a citizen of the European Union,
  • a resident in a European Union Member State,
  • a member of an association, company, organisation (natural or legal person) with its headquarters in a European Union Member State.

So, if you CAN then, please sign the form and send your petition

I’ve read a lot of people who are ‘tired’ after the fight with SOPA, but remember: the fight for civil liberties NEVER really ends. It’s tireless, and yes, it might seem unfair, but at least we live in a time when you can wage battle with a keyboard and not with a…

Poland: Protest Against ACTA

People of Poland or tourists visiting Warsaw. Let’s go and take part in protest against ACTA. Warsaw EU Parliament (Jasna Street 14/16a) 24.01 (Tuesday) at 4 pm (16:00).

There are also plans for a protest in Poznań (24.01, Tuesday, at 4 pm, the Old Market Square, near the Town Hall), but it’s still just an idea.

Our Government is proud of ACTA. Let’s show them that we aren’t.

It's Real For Us: Alright people, we need to concern ourselves with ACTA →

chocotaur:

Five facts:

1. ACTA isn’t the “European” SOPA. It’s nearly GLOBAL, and will apply to every country that signs the treaty.

2. ACTA is far more aggressive. ACTA will not simply affect websites and have them blocked out of the internet - its measures go as far as surveillance of…
