The European Parliament is fed up with the secrecy surrounding the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). Today, representatives from all the major parliamentary coalitions introduced a resolution demanding that the European Commission release all negotiating texts, inform Parliament about the negotiating process, and absolutely refuse to countenance any sort of "three strikes" Internet disconnection penalty for online copyright infringement

This should be good.

Where's that popcorn?

Excellent. For once the elected EU parliament is telling the unelected EC "you can't just do what you want".
They should just scrap the EC or at least remove all its powers.
