The Foundation for a Free Information Infrastructure (FFII) has written the European Parliament’s Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, asking it to form an official opinion on ACTA. The letter references the EU Academics letter arguing that ACTA is inconsistent with EU law; the European Parliament International Trade Committee study showing the same and concluding that ACTA would have “no immediate benefit” for EU citizens; and the Greens/EFA Group study highlighting the clash between ACTA and the European Convention on Human Rights and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
