Summary: A European parliament member explains rather poorly his reasons for suffocating the market
LAST week we shared this annotated video which contains an explanation of what ACTA is really about. Pedro Valesco-Martins talked a lot of nonsense and spin/waffle. There's more from the same group now. The president of the FFII describes or at least summarises the following video as "Paul Ruebig MEP explains you why we urgently need ACTA (because of those black people do not pay taxes!), priceless."

He also speaks about far-east Asia and uses ethic terms alongside "black market". ACTA is eventually glorified as a solution to "financial crisis". Is this man lying with sincerity? Is Europe -- like the United States -- dominated by the copyright and patent lobby? ⬆

If someone (or someones) calls you paranoid for taking about "beacon"-like functionality, there will be no lack of authoritative citations (e.g. Web links) they can be provided to prove them wrong
There's no "anti-AI" (it's not even AI), there's opposition to fraud, to plagiarism, and to companies that profit more when there's global warning (caused in part by their business activities)
