I seriously doubt it and when it hits the courts they can't just ignore all of the precedence. If the supreme court doesn't end up shooting this down if it passes and is challenged then I'll be fucking amazed.

If it's a ratified treaty, SCOTUS can't do anything about it, as per article VI of the constitution.

Now now now...let's remember what happened yesterday in Italy.  That shit was awesome, and we'll see what the fall-out from that is.

I'm not saying SCOTUS will follow suit, but shit damn fuck it was still great to see.  Not that I really believe those CIA fucks will do any or much time at all.

That sounds brilliant! You mean I would be able to lodge thousands of complaints of copyright violation a day against any company or person who annoys me and without trial or supporting evidence they will have to go through the rigmarole of trying to get it sorted out before their ISP blocks them?
This sounds like the most fun law ever.
Nah, it won't be quite that awesome. You see, they won't have the option of sorting it out: the ISPs have to banzor them as soon as the unsupported claim is made. If they don't, the ISPs themselves are considered pirates. Awesome, eh?

Dude, that is twice as awesome.

Anyone have any news on this?
ACTA proceeding as planned. When it all comes to fruitation, Congress won't have the chance to vote on it. It can be adopted via executive order, apparently, so 10:1 chance says it will be.
