Well - I'm happy (for now), because the government admitted it's mistake in not consulting ACTA with all the interested parties. For me, it was the most important thing.
As for ACTA being ratified by EU, Polish government admitting that they were wrong will help in killing it in the EU parliament. I can't imagine any polish party voting "FOR" now.
Finally - the thing I'm really hoping that will happen is that the future changes in the law will be consulted with the society. Politicians will think thrice before signing a copyright extension law, or software patent laws.
Edit: but you're right. Our government kept telling us that the signature means nothing, because our Sejm needs to still ratify ACTA. Now I'm hearing that polish Sejm can do jack to stop the ratification, wtf.
- metachris 15y agoI sure hope it gets killed in the European Parlament vote, but Poland itself has just 50 seats out of 754 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Parliament http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Parliament).
