Esquerda.net – TRANSCEND Media Service
Um acordo internacional negociado sigilosamente, que parecia abordar temas como o combate aos produtos falsificados, mas que afinal se revela um atentado à liberdade na Internet, instaurando “um big brother orwelliano gerido por empresas privadas”. Eis o ACTA, assinado por 31 países, mas que pode ainda ser barrado, porque nenhum Estado o ratificou. Dossier coordenado por Luis Leiria.
Abrimos com um panorama geral sobre o ACTA, no artigo A nova ameaça contra a Internet livre [1]. Ainda vamos a tempo de travar o ACTA [2], afirma a eurodeputada Maria Matias, e a deputada Catarina Martins insiste: “O ACTA é atentado à liberdade e à democracia” [3]. Abordamos frontalmente a questão da partilha de ficheiros na net nos artigos Perguntas e respostas sobre a partilha de ficheiros na Internet [4]e A Partilha e o Roubo [5]. Recordamos que o Bloco apresentou proposta para defender privacidade e proteção de dados [6] e que A revolta cresce contra o acordo [7]. Num debate promovido pela Democracy Now, um representante da Wikipedia e outro da indústria debatem o SOPA e o PIPA [8], projetos de lei que devido à reação dos internautas perderam apoio nos EUA e podem não seguir adiante. Outro artigo discute Quais são os prejuízos reais da “pirataria” para a economia dos EUA? [9] Finalmente, um FAQ sobre o ACTA. [10]
