SOPA and PIPA have been dropped by the US government. Next case: ACTA

Not only will ACTA shut down sites that include copyrighted work, but it will also effect our lives outside of the internet. This European anti-piracy scheme will end sales of generic drugs that could save lives. It will also monitor sales of seeds to the farmers that put food on our tables. Bad move, EU. We can end this like we ended SOPA/PIPA.
