Canada set to join Amerika and Europe in the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA).

What’s it all about ? Put simply, the ACTA would turn Border Patrol into Corporate Copyright Agents - searching your iPod, Laptop or other electronic device for “illegal content”. Government protecting corporate interests ? Surely not.

Couple that with border searches worldwide - and there’s a larger problem here.

Privacy and Freedom. Watch out for that boot.
