Mr. President,
I am writing you on my very own behalf.
I have a bone to pick with you, and the readers of my blog should know my opinion in regards to what you and your government are trying to do to the Internet in the name of the so-called French culture. So in respect of the international audience of this blog, I am compelled to address you in English.
…
Culture, and more precisely French culture, strikes me today as being something you and I have come to disagree on. Your » Three Strikes » approach to what is referred to as the » Internet Piracy » appears to me and many others as failing to address today’s challenges of our connected world while depriving citizens and businesses alike from the most elementary rights. Is this your solution to preserving the French culture?
…
This calls for three major objections:
First, « killing the artistic creation » does not mean what it initially seems to. …
Second, this » Internet Piracy » as some call it, is a vague concept. …
Third and last, I would like to point out what I believe to be a lack of coherence with the rationale put forth in this project. …
