Wasn't ACTA ratified by executive order without any Congress vote? If yes, what prevents this new agreement to also be ratified by executive order?

But only by the Senate, not the House, as pointed out by the link the other poster had. (not that I agree with the extreme right-wing views of the linked site)

That was not a deliberate choice it was just the first hit on Google for AF#75, there is an edited compilation in print but you can't link to it.

Ah, hopefully no hard feelings, then. The article did make some good points, though, as said.
