#ACTA: The feast of the dinosaurs

So. I went to the “public hearing” of  ACTA.  Long story short supposedly we were going to have to sign NDA’s to enter this “PUBLIC” session about the ACTA, since next week is the official 7th round of secret negotiations about this type of global DMCA, courtesy of the copymafia, are taking place in Mexico. In secret, as usual.   Then, we didn’t have to sign the NDA but they (the administrative NON ELECTED employees of this institute) asked us to “not talk about” what was going on in the meeting….that they were trusting in our good will. They weren’t saying anything relevant that we didnt’ know already, thanks to the Internet. I tweet. They say you stop or you are out.  Ok. I’m out. Don’t trust in my good will for anything in secret that affects 1 billion people.

The only good thing about this farse labeled as “public hearin” is  that i can tell that DINOSAURS EXIST, they wear suits and make “grooogr”. EW!

Here are some news in the Internet about what happened in english, spanish and some posts i’ve wrote in spanish about ACTA:
