Spain has long been one of the few countries where P2P-sites can operate legally. This era is coming to an end, with Spain caving into pressure from a threat to be put on the United State's trade blacklist, culminating with a new law to protect the intrests of copyright holders. Titled the Snide Law, it operates similar to the SOPA bill that was protested in the US in early 2012, sites are able to be blocked from public access based on a report from a copyright holder.
This new new law has met the ire of a popular online activist group Hackivistas and Creative Commons musician Eme Navarro, who is a member of music rights group SGAE, but is highly critical of the Snide law. To drive his point home, Navarro has released a track that is "all rights reserved" and has allowed hactivist to share links to the song on various sites in protest, which in turn Navarro will turn in a list of sites sharing the link to the Ministry of Culture.
This unique form of protest does two things, it overloads the review list, which operates in order of complaints recieved; and it a gives a glimpse into exactly how the takedown process will work. The law states that sites will be given a a notification about an infringement and the chance to take the link down, but how a site will actually be blocked is unknown. Joining the protest is pretty simple, just go here then copy and paste the HTML
