Yes, this is last years news, but it is also very important to watch this
issue to make sure something like this does not go into effect. People
like the ACTA are pumping large amounts of money into legal battles. The
fight is sill going on by www.von.org and others. Internet Telephony has
already been banned in places like India where it is illegal to use PC
based Internet Telephony or PSTN/IP gateways.

It is NOT last year's news. 
The battlefield has moved, the enemies the same....

I am sorry, I should have worded that better. I meant yes it was last years
new because it all started them. You are correct the battlefield has
moved and the enemies are the same. As I said, we need to watch this and
make sure this does not go into effect.
