Michael Geist explains ACTA

Professor Michael Geist of Ottawa University has produced a 20 minute talk introducing the Anti Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) -- the secret copyright treaty currently being negotiated, which threatens to destory our rights on the internet at the behest of greedy corporations.

It's an excellent introduction to this dangerous secret treaty:

oo, this stuff makes me so angry!

do we have an official PP policy on this? I'd suggest we want full details of the treaty disclosed asap by our government, and the promise of a referendum before any any treaty is signed?
