Finnish #Copyright law proposal

Finland will be the first country in the world where the Parliament is forced to process a copyright law proposal that was crowdsourced by the public. The proposal aims to change file-sharing into a misdemeanor, to legalize the copying of items that people already own and allowing the use of copyrighted material in classrooms for teaching purposes.
An endless stream of law proposals, soft-law initiatives and free-trade agreements keeps trying to eradicate or prevent the non-market sharing of digital works between individuals. New strategies are pushed using incentives and threats so that intermediaries will police the Internet to save the #scarcity based business models of a few from the competition of abundance.
Sharing is not a problem but a condition for the human (cultural) development.
Failing to recognize sharing between individuals as a cultural right is an by-product of market fundamentalism.

Cable Reveals Extent Of Lapdoggery From Swedish Govt On Copyright Monopoly - Falkvinge on Infopolicy

Among the treasure troves of recently released #WikiLeaks cables, we find one whose significance has bypassed Swedish media. In short: every law proposal, every ordinance, and every governmental report hostile to the net, youth, and civil liberties here in Sweden in recent years have been commissioned by the US government and industry interests.
At the middle of this, we find the US cable Stockholm 09-141, recommending Sweden to not be blacklisted by the US on the so-called Special 301 list, and outlines why. The Special 301 is a list that the United States compiles every year that names and shames countries that haven’t been friendly enough to American industries. [...] So there it is. All in black and white, in excruciating and incriminating detail. All the attacks on civil liberties and dismantlements of rights in Sweden, rights that have been and should be taken for granted, have been a demand from American trade interests. And these attacks continue to this date.

Le fameux site The Pirate Bay est actuellement dans la tourmente, nous annonce Le Monde, puisque les trois fondateurs viennent d’épuiser un de leurs derniers recours contre leur incarcération. L’un d’eux, Peter Sunde, a posté sur son blog une réponse que nous avons décidé de traduire ci-dessous : Maintain. Hardline. Kopimi.
