The Digital Economy Act 2010
What is the Digital Economy Act?

The Digital Economy Act is a newly passed piece of British legislation that is meant to protect copyright online and increase regulation and control of the way people use the Internet.

How did it happen?

    * The entertainment industry is refusing to adapt to new models, clinging to obsolete 20th Century thinking.
    * The Bill was drafted by unelected officials after lobbying from the entertainment industry.
    * It was passed in a hurry during the Parliamentary "wash up" process without full scrutiny.

Why should you be worried?

    * Websites will be blocked for alleged copyright infringement.
    * Families accused of sharing copyrighted files will be disconnected without trial. They will have to pay to appeal.
    * Even if you don't live in the UK, it sets a worrying precedent for other countries to follow suit.

Disconnection or "technical measures" like bandwidth throttling will kick in if file sharing does not drop by an incredible 70%. There are no alternative punishments to disconnection, no matter what the damage it will cause, and there is no statutory limit on the length of these disconnections, called, in the weasel words of the Act, "temporary account suspension".

Despite thousands of letters of concern and a petition with over 35,000 signatures of protest, the Bill was rushed through in the final days of parliament during the "wash up process" - it was not given the full scrutiny that it deserved.

This is a piece of legislation that gives potentially unlimited power to unelected officials, and assumes guilt on the part of those accused of copyright infringement. We can expect the industry lobbies to be out in force to roll back our human right to freedom of expression in the name of copyright very, very soon.

What's happening now?

Now that the Bill has been passed and the election is underway, candidates from all the main parties are keen to distance themselves from it. They admit that there are serious concerns and that the Bill did not receive the scrutiny and debate it deserves.

Ως ποτε θα ειμαστε πισω απο της αλλες χωρες στο θεμα του internet? Απαιτω λογοκρισια στη χρηση του internet εδω και τωρα! Δεν γινεται στην Αγγλια να σε κοβουν μολις δουν οτι κατεβασες 1-2 ταινιουλες και εδω ατομα σαν τον Sandman να κατεβαζουν 24/7 με την 24αρα συνδεση του. Δεν γινεται στο εξωτερικο να υπαρχουν οροι στο συμβολαιο που λενε οτι απαγορευεται να σηκωσεις τον οποιοδηποτε server στη γραμμη σου, αν δεν ειναι "buisness" το πακετο σου, και εδω στην Ελλαδα να εχουμε την ελευθερια να κανουμε οτι θελουμε με τη γραμμη μας. Δηλαδη αυτες οι καταστασεις ειναι εξοργιστικες. Ως ποτε θα ειμαστε νεαντερνταλ πιθηκανθρωποι σε σπηλιες?

*επειδη ειναι γνωστο οτι μερικοι χανετε στον εγκεφαλο προφανως το υφος μου ειναι ειρωνικο.

πέρα απ' την πλάκα, είναι το δεύτερο κύμα επίθεσης κατά των δικαιωμάτων του ίντερνε και όποιος δεν είναι απολιτίκ πιθηκάνθρωπος καλό είναι να το παρακολουθήσει και ν' ανησυχήσει λίγο παραπάνω για το επερχόμενο upgrade της γενικότερης κοινωνικοπολιτικής σαπίλας
