Soon there are European elections. Voting for the Pirate parties and getting other people to vote for them is a good way to stop this. They are fighting hard against this law. Especially Patrick Patrick Breyer of the German one. Anja Hirschel, who will follow him, will likely continue with the same vigor.

Donations are also a great way to support. Donate to the Pirates, EDRI, or local groups opposing this.

Pirate Party in Slovenia did not qualify for elections. They needed the support of 1.000 constituents, but when the officials did the count they only had 970 signatures.

What I'm saying is - your mileage my vary.
