Kosmonaunt on Tumblr just posted this link to the U.S. Petition to stop ACTA. Here is what was said about it:

Americans, this is a link to the White House petition to End ACTA and get the Obama Administration to withdraw its support! This petition needs 25,000 signatures by February 20, 2012! Please, Please take a minute to sign this petition!! I'm sure the more signatures we get, the greater chance the Obama Administration may listen to us.

Please pass this along!!

Please check it out and Retweet if you're on Twitter (hashtag #ActAgainstACTA). Here is the shortened link for Twitter -- http://t.co/suHDHx8K

Some of the petitions are hard to sign at any particular time because they're overloaded :D So, yes, try later :D I've signed one or two global ones and the UK government specific one. It's a terrifying piece of legislation that's been brewing for ages, and I'm glad to see there's finally been some attention paid to it.

If you can't get to the US one there are some global ones

I've been trying to sign but I can't get on the site.

Not sure why but I haven't looked at it myself, that being a US one.

These are global ones I believe, I've signed at least two of them. I'm started to get muddled now, what with global and UK and European ones - though I'm glad there's attention being paid:
