Germany to "wait and see" on ACTA


A large group of European nations signed ACTA two weeks ago, sparking outrage across the continent. But not all European nations signed onto the agreement. Several countries, including Germany, had not finished their internal processes for approving the treaty, but vowed to sign on shortly.

But on Friday, the German government signaled it was having second thoughts. According to Der Spiegel, the German government now plans to wait and see how the European Parliament votes before Germany makes a decision on the treaty itself.
