and how exactly would you tell that i have it no longer on my machine without violating my privacy.

as described above - it would be a step forward - and grant you your rights to sell/lease/rent/assign

don't be a tool - any sharing of any digital product by the owner of said products would be perfectly legal - SMS is quite safe - costs of corporate backup will remain exactly as they are - and legal users of the shared (protected) content will not rot in jail.
You constantly make this mistake - if Radiohead (or any band) want to give their stuff away - more power to them. If a porn producer wants to splash their stuff all over the internet for free, that is their choice and right, If you want to share your own creations with the world gratis... then have at it - be free. But if I don't want my stuff given away for free in its entirety in an environment where the 'giver' is making money from my work, or in an environment that impacts my ability to make a living from my own work - then FUCK THAT
Giving MY work away is solely MY choice, and not someone elses. If they want to use a bit of it for commentary, or make a mashup, or make a parody, or use it for purely research or educational purposes - then hell - I'm good with that. Siteripping me and placing it on a public torrent... well, I'm not so good with that.

but 3m doesn't own the copies of microsoft windows they have installed on every machine they only licience them
that the point, your no shared backup solution would kill the sms market, or explode the cost of a corporate backup
becuase they would be forced to back up everything including the common os stuff that every machine shares.

easily coded into the law - for a backup to qualify under fair use the backup would have to be stored in such a manner that it is only accessible to authorized accessors (corporations are again safe) and that the public is locked out. If you want a backup online - make one - share it to the world - go to jail. Again, If you OWN full rights to the content (and I mean copyright holders rights - not 'fair use' users rights) and wish to make your 'backup' publically available - go nuts.

and if the password was weak, or easily hackable, the corporation would be liable, considering the cracking tools now available that is going to get very messy

make up a propaganda campaign using all your own original thoughts flaming the government and you are immune from ACTA (and censorship)
copy/paste someone elses campaign and use it for your own without getting permission and/or obtaining the right to, or exerpting their works for discussion/commentary - then the ACTA act shuts you down - their original work will however be left up and fully uncensored and accessible to the public.
This is all about using OTHER peoples work as your own,for your profit - NONE of this is about 'censorship' of original thought. nor about censorship of the internet.

tell that to all the downfall parody creators who had their works ripped down from youtube before the EFF successfully defended their rights.
do you really think those types of parodies would be protected under the abusive laws you want written, especially when many people here argued that shouldn't be considered parody (even though it met all of the 4 fair use conditions and the eff parody proved it within the video itself).

Microsoft and all other corporations and all legitimate users will be untouched by this treaty - so don't expect them to stand on your side.

Google will be completely unaffected, major Telcos will be unaffected. They will enforce disconnections (logical or physical) when required to - just as they are now for cp - their scope of jurisdiction will increase - so a few jobs will be created - good for everyone concerned ('cept for you - and I'm not crying over that)

you just said you wanted to have them disconnected if they keep infringers online.
so either they will disconnect people without actual proof that they are guilty (ip address alone) or they will face loss of their own business from your side of the law, and on the other side the economic damage that was caused by wrongfully cutting off the falsely accused "infringer"
that a huge liability on both sides
talk about being caught between a rock and a hard place.
