lpv:translated text	"I voted against the ACTA because this agreement restricts the right to individual freedom. It is incompatible with the Charter of Fundamental Rights. Furthermore, ACTA is much too drastic a method for enforcing property rights, leaving aside the right to online freedom. In my opinion, piracy should not be supported but the way that the ACTA draft is written raises many concerns. There are many general provisions, little that is specific, an unclear message – this is what lawyers themselves say. This project is a form of silent control over Internet users, in effect a breach of the right to free speech. Blocking valuable and legal content on the Internet is no guarantee against piracy. The ACTA clauses can be interpreted in different ways and, for this reason, they have created a great deal of controversy. People are describing it as a kind of surveillance of the Internet and its users. The virtual world has always been a location for free exchange of ideas and the ACTA wants to put limits on this right. The ACTA does not just mean controls over the Internet but also poses a threat to our economy by restricting the development of creativity not just online but also in science and technology. If the ACTA were adopted, we would have thousands of persons suspected of illegal online activity, many of whom would be innocent and unnecessarily investigated. Loss of the independence that the Internet provides would be harmful to the creativity of society. I would call for a balanced policy to safeguard copyright and to combat the trade in counterfeit goods, which also takes into account the right to civil liberties."@en1
