Officialy, a law named "Création et Internet" was voted on thursday night by the french national assembly.<br><br>The main goal of this law is "cutting" the internet connection of people who download copyrighted cultural material. In fact, some amendments was redacted by the SGDN (National Defense General Secretary : army).<br>
The cutting can be beetween two months and one year. The project is to send 10 000 emails a day to warn people downloading. 3 000 official mail a day and 1 000 cutting a day. All the process will be done by only 7 persons. So they to take decisions for each email, mail and cutting in only 22 seconds.<br>
In this way the french internaute is presumed guitly and have no chance to defend himself.<br><br>But, the law give the possibility to buy a proprietary software sell by the government which will send information about you and what you are doing to a central server. These information can be use for your defense. Officialy only.<br>
<br>In the law another thing dangerous is the "labellisation" of internet site. The government have now the ability to decide if your site is OK for french internet or not. And want to constraint the search engine to use their "labellisation" database. Disgusting. Just in one law neutrality of internet and human law are rejected.<br>
<br>Some of us think that this law will be inapplicable. I hope so.<br><br>But in 15 days of debate we have heard some mistakes from the french cultural ministre, Cristine Albanel. She sayd : translate for you "In the assembly we have a free software, this fre software, OpenOffice.org comes with a securisation software, like Microsoft Office". Another mistake, she said, "we will provide a software to secure your wifi connection". And some other mistakes and stupidity.<br>
<br>This law was written by and for musical major "industry".<br><br>That's all for the moment. Next step is senat.<br><br>Florian for the Parti Pirate.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/4/4 Glenn Kerbein <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:glenn.kerbein@pirate-party.us">glenn.kerbein@pirate-party.us</a>></span><br>
