Something worth paying attention to from the analysis:
Next, ACTA's chapter on "Special Measures Related to Technological Enforcement of Intellectual Property in the Digital Environment" contains a proposal (apparently put forward by Japan, based on the leaked 18 January 2010 draft) requiring ACTA signatories to enable IP rightsholders to expeditiously obtain subscriber identity information from ISPs (Article 2.18 (3ter)(Option 2). This appears to be inconsistent with US standards of due process and judicial oversight.
