HELP NEEDED : Lots of typos / Need for french and other translations afterwards. (thanx to tonfa for timecoding)

1

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,440

You are member of the parliement and it's debating about the telecom package

2

00:00:04,517 --> 00:00:08,150

Right now I'm just trying to make sure

3

00:00:08,202 --> 00:00:10,957

that the telecom package doesn't open any doors

4

00:00:11,030 --> 00:00:13,030

for filtering of the internet

5

00:00:13,066 --> 00:00:19,052

or what has been called the graduated response

6

00:00:19,052 --> 00:00:21,655

so called "three strikes and you are out of the internet",

7

00:00:21,656 --> 00:00:25,003

that the french government has been working with.

8

00:00:25,095 --> 00:00:28,683

I am trying to secure that the telecoms package

9

00:00:28,681 --> 00:00:31,273

doesn't create any possibilities for that.

10

00:00:31,273 --> 00:00:33,966

You can't turn legislation upside-down

11

00:00:33,984 --> 00:00:37,063

and treat people as if they were criminals.

12

00:00:37,099 --> 00:00:40,729

Just because some of them might do something like that on the internet,

13

00:00:40,766 --> 00:00:47,416

you can't filter everybody just to get to some people.

14

00:00:47,583 --> 00:00:48,646

It's like the post-office:

15

00:00:48,754 --> 00:00:54,477

Imagine that the post-office would be allowed to open everybodies letters

16

00:00:54,495 --> 00:01:00,529

to read them just to see if somebody is sending bad or illegal within the letters.

17

00:01:00,601 --> 00:01:03,751

It's not like if the telecom package is voted through tomorrow,

18

00:01:03,751 --> 00:01:05,516

then internet will be filtered.

19

00:01:05,606 --> 00:01:09,730

But they give a possibility and take us one step further

20

00:01:09,784 --> 00:01:12,593

towards letting memberstates filter the internet.

21

00:01:12,619 --> 00:01:22,130

...the reason that those compromising and those complicated bad amendments

22

00:01:22,212 --> 00:01:24,520

got in there is massive lobby campaign I think.

23

00:01:24,592 --> 00:01:32,473

A massiv lobby-campaign from different right-holders or film-industry, music-industry

24

00:01:32,491 --> 00:01:37,956

that think it is okay to use filtering and "three strikes and you are out"

25

00:01:38,099 --> 00:01:40,833

to actually protect copyright.

26

00:01:40,887 --> 00:01:46,135

But what I feel is the problem that we have a division in generations here.

27

00:01:46,189 --> 00:01:50,499

That some of my collegues view the internet

28

00:01:50,507 --> 00:01:56,901

as.. just in means of downloading or just a problem.

29

00:01:56,955 --> 00:02:03,081

It's that of seeing that it's actually an extremely important part of people's life.

30

00:02:03,171 --> 00:02:08,770

And then it's actually a way of using your freedom of expression,

31

00:02:08,806 --> 00:02:11,191

freedom to information.

32

00:02:11,209 --> 00:02:13,910

Pick up the phone, call your members of parliaments

33

00:02:13,964 --> 00:02:17,994

"Hey!" and tell them "I would like to explain something. How I view this.".

34

00:02:18,012 --> 00:02:21,740

That's a thing I think people can do, towards their politicians.

35

00:02:21,794 --> 00:02:24,669

Not only the members of parliament here in European Parliament,

36

00:02:24,712 --> 00:02:27,463

they can call their members of the national parliament and say:

37

00:02:27,553 --> 00:02:30,111

"Hey, what does your party think of this, that's happening."

38

00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,566

Or reach your government,

39

00:02:31,781 --> 00:02:35,592

so just to get it raised to the debate

40

00:02:35,628 --> 00:02:38,518

and make people aware that this is something people really care about

41

00:02:38,540 --> 00:02:41,270

We have to at least take every fight one step at a time.

42

00:02:41,306 --> 00:02:44,083

And hopefully, eventually - I think we will win.
