11.03.2010: EU Parliament Votes Against ACTA

Mit einer überwältigenden Mehrheit von 633 gegen 16 hat das europäische Parlament gegen das "Handelsabkommen" ACTA gestimmt.

Wasn't expecting such a lopsided result, but EU Parliament voted 663 to 13 against ACTA, saying that "it flouts agreed EU laws on counterfeiting and piracy online." Beyond that, apparently the Parliament is ready to go to court to stop EU negotiators from continuing down the path they're on.

Some Members of Parliament are also pointing out that the EU negotiators are violating the Lisbon Treaty, which says that EU Parliament Members should have "full and immediate access at all stages of international negotiations."
