As a Finn I don't hold my breath over that the the vote, if it gets to a point parliament can vote on it (which I hope it does), will make a difference. Most likely it will be shot down by the Government parties as the copyright holders lobby-machine has quite strong influence. To make matters worst, most of the parties MPs vote what the party says them to vote regardless what the individual MP seems to be thinking.

Don't get me wrong, of course I want that the vote will pass, but I'll rather see the vote being 'shot down' than not have it at all. At least it will generate (more) discussion. We can always start the process over until we can get a positive outcome.

Now that I think this more, the timing might actually be just right for this to make a real impact as the the 9-year old girls confiscated Winnie The Pooh laptop case should still be fresh in peoples memories..
