Act on ACTA Tell Congress to Open the Secret IP Pact Par EFF.org UpdatesLe [2009-11-11] à 04:29:15
Présentation : Despite the Obama administration's policy of openness, the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement ACTA still remains shrouded in secrecy. Although no text has been officially released, leaked negotiation texts reveal that ACTA will include provisions regulating the global Internet provisions that could trample protections for Net users and the sites they use. ACTA is currently being privately negotiated between the US, the EU, Switzerland, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, Morocco and Singapore, outside of existing multilateral treaty-making bodies. These countries intend for ACTA to create new international standards for IP enforcement above those in existing international treaties. The agreement is on a fast track. Negotiators want to complete negotiations and finalize details in 2010. In the US, ACTA is being negotiated as an Executive Agreement, and, therefore, it will not go through the usual congressional process that applies to international treaties and other free trade agreements. The most recent round of negotiations that took place from 4-6 November in Seoul, South Korea, focused on enforcement in the digital environment, based on text drafted by US negotiators. Although that text hasn t been officially released for public comment, a leaked memo confirms that ACTA will include many things that have been sought by major copyright industry lobbyists for many years. ACTA will require countries' laws to impose legal liability on Internet intermediaries, such as ISPs and websites that host user-generated content, like YouTube and weblogs. To avoid such liability, intermediaries will have to adopt Three Strikes Internet disconnection policies, and countries signing ACTA will have to adopt laws banning the circumvention of copyright owners technological protection measures, modeled on the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act. US copyright industry lobbyists have also pressed for provisions requiring Internet intermediaries to monitor Internet communications for potential copyright infringing material something Internet Intermediaries are expressly not required to do under US law. These policies threaten citizens freedom of expression, privacy and due process rights. They also endanger future Internet innovation. Despite its significant impact on the global Internet and on the rights of citizens across the globe, ACTA continues to be negotiated behind closed doors. Increased transparency is needed to ensure that ACTA includes balanced policies that meet the needs of all stakeholders in the information economy particularly citizens and technologists and not just the demands of the entertainment industry. Congress can and should do more. At a time when the competitiveness of the US economy is at stake, open debate about real changes to global technology policy is too important to ignore. Instead of making the public rely on Freedom of Information Act lawsuits and leaked documents, Congress can tell the USTR to open up the ACTA process to true oversight and deliberation and demand that negotiators keep to the original agenda of fighting counterfeit fake products ACTA has been compromised by secrecy and privileged access for industry lobbyists. Tell Congress to open it up, or demand an alternative.
