The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement -- ACTA.
How Obama (&company), censored the internet despite mass protests against SOPA and PIPA.
Under the provisions of ACTA, copyright holders will be granted sweeping direct powers to demand ISPs remove material from the Internet on a whim. Whereas ISPs normally are only forced to remove content after a court order, all legal oversight will be abolished, a precedent that will apply globally, rendering the treaty worse in its potential scope for abuse than SOPA or PIPA.
