US Threatened To Blacklist Spain For Not Implementing Site Blocking Law (torrentfreak.com)

You know we should all never buy a DVD, Blueray disk or a movie ticket ever again until the industry gets the message. Read a book instead

> I interned at the US embassy in Madrid and I can tell you that it was not bullying of any sort but a long negotiation and collaboration process between the US and Spanish governments. Furthermore, the US government also sends out proclamations of policy all the time called "demarches"; the US does it, Spain does it, they're all just formal statements of policy and requests for action from one country to another, this is likely just another demarche and thus not out of the ordinary.

Spanish here... I hoped our politicians had some personality and told other countries to mind their own business or leave us alone... That goes for US, but also for Germans and French...
