ACTA is just more evidence of the excessive control that corporations/new world order want to exert over individual communication. I've written 16 published books and I have never lost a moments sleep from worrying about being ripped off by piracy. There is a little concept called 'the public good' that to me means that people who create content want both to make a little money and to help people.
BTW, there are worse problems in the world than ACTA, but ACTA is pretty bad.
