Comments on: Poles Protest ACTA, Polishing A Sense of Resistance https://techcitement.com/internet-2/social-media/poles-protest-acta-polishing-a-sense-of-resistance/ get excited Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:57:55 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.2 By: Guest from Poland https://techcitement.com/internet-2/social-media/poles-protest-acta-polishing-a-sense-of-resistance/#comment-1324 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 01:19:00 +0000 http://techcitement.com/?p=8044#comment-1324 Just FYI: Only in Cracow there have been 15000 people demonstrating against ACTA and together with dozens of other cities (like Wroclaw, 5000 protesters)  and as far I know the overall number of protesters exceeded 60K people (so far … the protest wave is ongoing). There are already over 200K signs on the petition demanding a nationwide referendum about rejecting ACTA.

Many Polish artists and even software companies (like CD Project – leading producer of computer games) are suppporting the anti-ACTA movement. People like Grabaz (a leader of popular rock bands Pidzama Porno and Strachy na Lachy) believe  “I am for freedom in Internet even if sometimes someone steals my records. Freedom is more important than money”
