If the copyright industry is pushing for its life for something to pass, while pretending it’s not a change at all, and preventing lawmakers from understanding the concepts defined, what do you think it contains?
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that thinks it’s reasonable for legislators to give them the power to kill a legal competitor in a foreign country by killing their income, website, and advertising at the pointing of a finger.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that thinks it’s reasonable that they should be legislated to the top of search results, and their free competitors downranked by law.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that demands under threat of law – a private industry – to wiretap an entire population, just to see if they do something that industry doesn’t like, and if so, censor that population’s communications at will.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that argues that citizens should be actively prevented from exercising their fundamental rights, such as freedom of speech and expression, if that may possibly interfere with that industry’s business.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that thinks it’s reasonable to sue a small Karaoke manufacturer for 1.2 billion dollars. Oh, and a student for over 4 million. Oh, and a dead grandmother.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that uses child pornography as a legal ram to pave the way for their own censorship, in ways that actually hurt children and promote child abuse.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that planted rootkits on people’s music CDs and took complete control of their computers, millions of them – including web cameras, microphones, files on the hard drive, everything. They forced their way into people’s homes and got eyes and ears there.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]This is the industry that, once you think they’ve sunk as low as morally and humanly possible, keeps coming up with new creative ways to surprise you.[/font]
[font=Ubuntu, Arimo, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif]If this industry wants this legislative package so incredibly badly that they’re fighting for their life to get it, while pretending it’s no big deal, all while not even telling lawmakers what it is, that should be enough for anybody to realize it’s a bag of the darkest bloody horrors. Expect it to codify the examples above. And more. Expect it to be much, much worse than SOPA.[/font]
