Thread: ACTA.

  1. Default ACTA.


    Since the SOPA thread has already done its purpose, I feel as if more attention is needed to this treaty.
    A brief Youtube video explaining it.


    And another.


    The actual treaty.(PDF)

    look! more people who don't know what the internet is capable of and how awesome the internet really is!

    I mean really though. Did any of these people see what the internet did to the FBI when it shutdown Megaupload? Do you really wan the entire internet to hate you that much?

    Apparently, people underestimate the power of several thousand people DDoSing a site at once.

    I think people grasp the power a DoS attack really has. At that's not much power at all. It's the equivalent of tearing down a promotional poster. It sends a message sure, but frankly, I don't think these people care that much.

  6. Default Re: ACTA.


    Well, it's a propaganda thing.
    It's not directed at the site, it's to draw attention to the cause.
    It's like taking a wrecking ball and smashing the wall with the poster on it, then shooting off fireworks.

    Huh?
    I'm sure (but not 100% sure, so if I'm wrong anyone is welcome to correct me) that most media wont cover it (or at least the big ones) so the only people that would hear of it are the ones that would like that building torn down, only problem is that the wall the wrecking ball smashed was just the fence wall (or how ever its called) so at most the ones in the building got a little annoyed at having to fix it.
    And I'm pretty sure they wont go deeper because that would mean jail time for almost all the kids doing the DDoS inside the US.

    I dunno, it was all over the news after they DDoS'd the DoJ.

  9. Default Re: ACTA.


    Well good to see I was wrong, was thinking they didn't report it since it took like a couple of months (or was it a couple of weeks?) for the big networks to report about occupy wall street.

  10. Default Re: ACTA.


    That was only 5600 people, and they took down several large label music/movie corporations, the RIAA, the MPAA, and DoJ, too. Hardly the entire internet; even just 100,000 people could take down the entire US government indefinitely. So yes, technically, they are underestimating people, but only because the internet is such a bottleneck at this point computers can outprocess it a million times over.

    Its like... a lot of people even bother checking those sites in the first place? What do you win taking down sites that doesnt get much trafic in the first place?

    I think they notice it since they're making more aggressive attacks (not too aggressive):

    In spanish (there are several news sites reporting it but its pretty much the same everywhere):

    Sad thing is, just online "Protesting" isnt going to cut it. It needs to be mixed with some real protesting and phone calls and pomegranate to stop the retarded bills on their tracks.

  14. Default Re: ACTA.


    Depends on if they are just targeting the web servers. If they are bringing down some of the internal servers used for actual business, it is an issue, but yeah, if it's just the webservers, unless it's an ecommerce site it's not a big deal.

  15. Default Re: ACTA.


    What the hell's with all these terrible bills?



    Congress needs an overhaul starting with the SOPA creator.
