If this law had been implemented, then what next? Disconnection of internet access for political activists / dissenters?

This isn’t over though – beware.

I had the patience to read the report of the French Constitutional Council.

OK for the fundamental right stuff, but it also says that systematically monitoring the Internet connections of the whole country is just OK for as long as there data protection directive applies to the information collected.

Ooops. Beware of HADOPI2. It will be better written (not too difficult) and will legalize Big Brother in France.

Allons enfants de la Patrie
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Contre nous de la tyrannie …. Aux armes citoyens ! Formez vos bataillons !

pirateprideWW > Well, you know, property is a fundamental human right (at least for the european human right convention of 1948). But have the ownership on something is not free, and generaly it is the fact that you purchase a product. And sometimes you purchase a service who guarantee on the law that you own something (Notary, etc…). It is nevertheless a fundamental human right.

Well, given the ridiculous and legally dubious circumstances behind this crappy legislation, it’s only fitting to have it struck down under equally ridiculous and legally dubious interpretations.
