EU Commissioner: Anti-Digital Piracy Law is All But Dead

EU Commissioner: Anti-Digital Piracy Law is All But Dead

"EUROPE?The whole idea behind the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA)?which late last year and earlier this year was signed (though not ratified) by a number of countries, including the US and EU members?was to bring the world together to address the global fight against digital piracy, such as it is. But, as with so many things political, it appears that the process behind ACTA as much as the provisions contained within it have all but doomed the law to the dustbin of history. At least that is what Neelie Kroes, the European Commissioner for the Digital Agenda, has said is the likely outcome."
