Default Re: “Six Strikes” Anti-Piracy Scheme Overly Secret and Unfair...

What we in the states are seeing and you in Europe as a result of global expansion is what I call regulatory capture. Corporations are sending ex-employees into seats of government office, not as the highest seat but the underlings just below it. They in turn see to it that law enforcement, policy actions, or what is neglected to be followed up on is in benefit of that particular industry.

Ask yourself why in the US no banker nor Wall Street executive has been put in jail over the cratering of the US economy? Mainly because the SEC responsible of enforcement of white collar crime is accepting wrist slaps without jail time nor even requiring a corporation to admit guilt. This particular administration now in power has had less bankers going to jail over illegal actions than any past administration I know of.

It's the same wherever you look. Agriculture, entertainment, military procurement, you name it. These people are not elected, not put into power so to say. They remain there no matter what party wins office.

This is no court. It's a committee that was assigned to carry out the task of review on those accused. More telling, is that the committee was not assigned to seats or even formed till after the agreement was drawn up and set in place.

The reason for this 6 strikes is the present administration put the entertainment lobby/interests with the telco lobby/interest and told them make an agreement or we'll make a law.

Here is an example of regulatory capture as it now exists.



None of these politicians are listening to the citizens concerned with all this unless they near riot. The reason for that is money in politics. They are protecting their income streams and not paying attention to running the country.
