Speaking about the campaign hacktivists in Public

Maria Gonzalez , of the Public-mailed me to ask me some questions about the operation launched by hacktivists against the law Sinde-Wert, and today I quote in his article " hacktivists called to incriminate against the law Sinde-Wert ".

Then the full exchange of questions and answers that crossed:

Q. I wonder if you think the initiative will succeed, since March 1 is very close and fear can play an important role in deciding what to do. Do you think the Government is going to say against this site or you are deaf to the initiative?

A. If the Commission ignores the reporting of an author, would clearly put in evidence that this law is not in any way to defend the perpetrators, but to censor and shut down sites without having to "those pesky judges" through. The initiative is a real hacking of the law clearly infringes behavior generates a large number of pages, while carrying out the claim by a claimant involved in the action, the owner of the related work. On the one hand, you are putting in place a mechanism of type "Fuenteovejuna" can imply that, if all goes well, a few hundred pages, cases that the Commission should study. On the other, we speak of pages whose main activity in general is not a criminal conduct infringes, but merely a short-term action, and that is time communication scenario refuse to remove the link, to avoid a implicit admission of guilt.

It's a clear way to demonstrate the very clear and obvious problems of a law that bypasses all the basic principles of effective judicial protection and separation of powers reasons why it has been found at all times against citizens and has been appealed to the Supreme Court by the Association of Internet Users, by the Spanish Association of the Digital Economy (Adigital), and by Internet Business Network (REI). It is simply a legal aberration, and also inappropriate: raise the law for alleged "pressure the government of the United States" when the White House claims not considered adequate legislative package similar in your country (SOPA / PIPA) because the possible harmful effects it could have on the development of the Internet is completely incoherent and absurd.
