  • If I were them, I would trade my money for free knowledge to everyone. If they can't make any money, then why are they still doing it? shouldn't they be extinct by now?

  • Fight sopa

  • WHAT THE FUCK IS THE REAL VIDEO CALLED? IM GONA RAISE A BUNCH OF HELL ABOUT THIS RIGHT NOW!!!!!

  • OOOOO -- Hollywood supports 2.4 million jobs! OMG, whatever will we do if they lose their jobs because of piracy. OTOH, if they decide to ship those jobs to China, that'll be just fine. After all, it was OK to ship the US Auto industry off shore, so why are all those Hollywood jobs so special?! Meanwhile, the US banking industry has robbed Americans of TRILLIONS. Don't see anyone concerned about THAT. But poor HOLLYWOOD! Oh, boo hoo!

  • Stop fucking whining, this bill will effect the entire world, not

    Just America. It will ruin lives and make the internet suck ass from a straw. God help us stop SOPA.

  • I'd go to the movies more often if they didn't cost a half a days wage :/

  • Nice job on the vid

    Stop sopa and pipa!!!!!!!!

  • These people don't realize that by passing this act millions of people could loose their jobs. YouTube, Facebook, wikipedia, google, and so on .

  • You are trying to eliminate the internet!!

    I read the SOPA documents and it clearly states that you will have the right to shut down anything you believe is guilty without benefit of a doubt, and furthermore they can't do anything unless you purposefully misrepresented that they possessed or endorced pirated material. Lastly, it states that if anyone impliments legal and ethical security to protect their systems, networks, PCs, and END USERS then will be deemed guilty!!!!!!!

  • NO FUCK YOU. I WILL NOT PASS THOSE BILLS, I WILL FIGHT THEM. ALONG WITH 300,000,000 other u.s. citizens that need the internet. Whats more important ? A few of your jobs or the whole damn internet your family needs ? With this sopa act I wouldnt be able to comment. So fuck that.

  • They got issues. I got tissues. I seriously doubt anyone that has gone to the movies feels sorry for these people.

  • Yeah Big Media should get more money for all the propaganda they put out. They are doing a great job distracting the American people from the real issue.

  • SOPA/PIPA will destroy the Internet. Many more jobs are created by the internet in its current state then it will ever cost. There are better ways

  • I agree with what they say partly, but the laws will not acomplish that, if they do what i've heard they do, the entire internet will be wiped out in 24 hours. With almost nothing left. I'm not exaggerating AT ALL, which is the saddest part.

  • Todays generation in about 50 years is going to be fuking crazy if this passes.....

    ~When I was your age, we watched anything we wanted on a website called YouTube

    _LOL you've been dreaming too much grandpa

    ~ I'm serious. We also had sites called facebook, twitter and tumbir where we could say anything we wanted.

    _ You've gone crazy grandpa....

    [Fuk SoPA and PIPA And anyone who supports it!]

  • i dont like sopa and pipa!!!

  • MONEY HUNGRY ASSSHOLES. Why does the government choose to focus on minuscule shit like this when the government is bailing out foreign banks with billions upon billions of dollars ILLEGALLY. THERE AREN'T EVEN ACTUAL NUMBERS. CORRUPT FUCKING GOVERNMENT

  • SCREW THIS STUPID SOPA AND PIPA SHIT.

  • These people are pissing me off! 2% of the United States population controls 98% of the United States wealth or capital if you will. STOP FUCKING COMPLAINING that poor people who YOU keep poor are trying to find ways to get things cheaper while YOU are PROFITING off of everything! While there is poor* there will be hacking and stealing and piracy and YOU can't do shit to stop it! Just like viruses, bacteria, and parasites!

  • They have no idea what they are getting themselves into. If viacom has any brains at all, they will stop before it's too late.

  • I like the internet and I hate SOPA but one day i want to be a movie director and I don't see my movie get pirated because... Well its mine and I want to make a living off it. I do realize that ticket prices are to high but it's wrong to steal from people.

  • The best way to counter act such CROOKED & UNCONSTITUTIONAL acts such as PIPA & SOPA, is BOYCOTT all products from ANY and ALL ASSOCIATED PEOPLE, PARTIES, COMPANIES & POLITICIANS WHO CONDONE THIS ACT OF FASCISM! There stuff is all overpriced & unfriendly to the condition of this economy. THESE ASSHOLES BROUGHT THIS UPON THEMSELVES & IF IT PASSES? THEY HAVE ONLY SEEN THE BEGINNING OF THEIR LOSSES! Calling all pirates..... "HAVE AT IT! MAKE 'EM SUFFER FOR FUCKING WITH OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS"!

  • Yeah, I'm sure the makeup artists are REALLLY affected by internet piracy. How about this? You cut your CEO's and all your higher executive's pay checks and then you won't have to worry about not having enough money for people to feed their families.

  • if it does pass, then i think it will revive this nation. you will have to work hard to make your own videos, by applying self made music too it, making your own cartoons insted of uploading spongbob episodes, buying! music from itunes, which will un-spoil you from downloading music every day, ect...

  • 6:32 notice it said "American", what about the other countries? There will be torrent, as long as they keep making movies games etcs. You cant stop em. Theres always a way to do torrenting.

    SOPA/PIPA only make things worse, they can ban web site, with out any ***evidence!!!!***

  • it cost you 30million to make a bunch of shitty movies? WOW

  • Everyone of them lives in a 400k+ house.

  • it seems like the time is right for a new underground internet to arise ! Could be that the US will have their internet and the rest of the world theirs. That is a fun perspective !

  • THE CREATORS OF THE FIRST FUCKING WIRELESS SHARING NETWORK WHO PUT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS INTO THIS.."Best Sharing Program" ARE PUTING A LAW -AGAINST- THAT PROGRAM TO EXPELL ALL INTERNET REPRODUCTION OF A "World Tragedy" SO THAT LAW CAN BAN THAT ARTICLE FROM GETTING ON THE NEWS????I MEAN FUCKING REALLY?? SO MILLIONS COUL HAVE BEEN KILLED WITH OUT US EVEN KNOWING?? like this comment to get this message around!!

  • Piracy MY ASS!!!!! BUTT PIRACY is more like it!!!! These GREEDY pukes will suffer if this passes! There IS already HUGE plans to BOYCOTT all associated companies who are for this act of nonsense & dictatorship! You don't get paid enough 'cause you work for CROOKS who want everything for themselves! They'll all be sorry, when they see their sales DROP due to their disgusting GREED and self centered agenda! This is ILLEGAL censorship & it IS unconstitutional.

  • Wow this is just stupid there is a thing called copyright

  • Ya we need to make sure this passes, so they can pay for their 3 houses in the bahamas, their 5 ferraris, and their personal bank accounts with millions of dollars, that they use to pay the government so that they will pass ludicrous bills like these.

    What ever happened to information being free?

    What ever happened to the internet being free?

    Do not let these bills pass, sign a petition, tell a friend, post it on social networking sites, while you can!

  • Boycott any and ALL companies, individuals & products associated with this corruption, WHAT A JOKE!!! PATHETIC GREED MONGERS!!!!!!!!

  • These people are a JOKE! They are part of the reason we are in a recession & NOW they are asking for help for a situation that THEY THEMSELVES CAUSED!!! This is just CROOKS looking for a way to compensate for their losses. WELL get over it, you bunch of CRY BABIES and join the club! We're ALL in this together & THIS NONSENSE is NOT the answer & you WILL see the DAMAGE this nonsense will cause. YOU will only make it worse for YOURSELVES, you FUCKING IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

  • All i can say for some reason its like if our Government is heading to or rather is starting to look something like Communism. Alot stuff is happening now... were heading to tough times, especially this year.

  • There are other ways of stopping it

  • Stop crying

  • Shut up Ur ruining r lives I am annoyed

  • This makes me sick do you know how many jobs will in turn be lost because of these bills if they are passed!!!!

  • HILARIOUS..."The Daily Show and Colbert Report watched 200 million times...illegally"???

    REALLY? How do you illegally watch a telivision show? I repeat...a TELIVISION SHOW!!!

    and dont say "well dont you have to pay for cable"? YES we do...but then Comedy Central has their own websites FOR those shows for people to WATCH FOR FREE? I dont get this shit. HOW is this important at a time like this?

    you know what, screw it, lets just start paying for everything thats free.

  • Oh shut tha fuck up...We all know this is not to "Stop Online Piracy". What interests me is why it has taken this long to come with this bill. Obviously, there is something major behind this. The fact that this bill comes to the floor around the same time that social media has become the voice of revolutions throughout the world is extremely interesting.This bill has absolutely nothing to do with Online Piracy and to believe that the house of representatives give a shit about THAT is just ignite

  • Lost jobs?! Umm where ARE those poor celebrities?

  • Millions of people around the world go hungry for days, why? because they don't have enough money! so do you expect them to spend $4.99 for a CD/DVD? if no, then does it mean they have NO right to entertainment? Ever? Talent, protection, ideas are to be protected wisely. why don't these people get down to brass tacks and say - WE WANT MORE MONEY! (rather than wasting 6.56 minutes in blabbering obvious facts).

  • Of course they cry on camera for a paycheck.

  • Sopa, you didn't create the internet, you can't take it down.

  • Next, we're arranging for a nationwide boycott of the two bills (SOPA & PIPA) on the twenty-fourth of January.

    Black out your display pictures on the 23rd and don't get on the internet at all on the 24th.

    Why the 24th? This is when they begin to vote on the bill.

    Please repost this everywhere you can and thumbs up so everyone can get the message!

  • i love how alot of these people are in 1000$ suits and high rise executive offices...poor you... this is a bunch of bullshit! down with PIPA and SOPA!

  • Well, now why don't we pay? BECAUSE IT'S FREAKIN' EXPENSIVE!

  • This is all crap, the people in this video are iether getting paid to say so, or working for the companies, or have something thats going in their favor. The truth is that if prices were lowered, little piracy will occur. Anyways the feeling of getting information on the internet for free is great and if this law passes that could go away, imagine that you will have to pay for getting details on how to change the oil on your car because thats affects the dealer close to you.... prices will go UP

  • want to stop piracy? huh? then price your products right ffs!

  • THIS IS SOME STRAIGHT BULLSHIT

  • Those who reject SOPA/PIPA like this comment!

    We can find different ways to rid of piracy that doesn't deal with censoring the web!

  • Gawd, these people seem to feel that they should be able to legislate vs Russian internet, the World.

  • How dare they!

  • ya but what about them greedy ass companys who already are billionaires!!! i understand what they are saying,i know its wrong.but its complete bullshit because some companies are already super rich

  • 1:43

    Bitch please. Wanna know what's incredibly frustrating? Listening to you trying to talk about the internet, thinking that you're stopping piracy. I really hope you're seeing this you dumb hoe AKA Becky Mair. My name is Anonymous and I approve this message. Mad? Come at me! Oh wait, you can't. This is the internet and I can say whatever I want, hoe. Get used to it because you can't control me.

  • Spongebob? I've not been in the demographic to watch that, but take MLP FiM - they make bejujular dollars on selling merchandise and I buy it, I endorse that, I love that. Shit I'll probably end up buying MLP FiM seasons as DVDs to have it at home. This legislation says "we can take YT down, we can fuck you up". If that had been law I and my daughter would never have become a fan of MLP FiM.

    This legislation is saying to the bronies: fuck off you are evil (and not in an evil enchantress way)

  • fuck corporate greed

  • You mad bro?

  • Stop complaining my dad doesent even have a job

  • Wow well screw that my uncle worked on Apollo 13 and other movies and he thinks that it shouldn't be accepted. S.O.P.A. is a load of crap.

  • fuck yall.. yo cant stop that,!! the fucking internet industry is going to crash,,!!

  • if they really care this bad it is their risk by putting it on the internet!!

  • Im an artist /engineer and I have to say after watching this video I must say everyone please stop Sopa and Pipa! Every artist needs their freedom of speech I love music so much I dont care about getting paid the love of music for me is real! I get satisfaction from people who like my music.Dont get me wrong we all need money but this is Congress' first attempt to implement a new world order! God in heaven is the Truth people!

  • They swear like they don't copy things, fuck

  • so they already make million, yet they want to make more?? Money makes people greedy! FACT

  • The funny thing is that the people who pirate movies/music probably wouldn't buy them anyways, so the sales will remain the same.

    But with this act Viacom will just be able to close down the competition, I can see how that creates jobs...

  • Just as ridiculous as Bill S.978.

  • This makes me sick. What a load of bullshit.

  • this is the problem with our so called "leaders" in our country. when life gets hard, we jack up prices or put a price tag on something free. yes you worked hard at it but you wouldn't have a job if we didn't use the money that we spent time away from our families, on little or no sleep or even being shot at to earn! i'm sorry for wanting to find a "better deal" on your over priced item. if that's our crime maybe we should rethink "ideas" like Wal-Mart.

  • FUUUUCCCKKK SOPA/PIPA. THUMBS UP! LETS POST THIS ON EVERY SINGLE VIDEO TO COMPLAIN!

  • [*This comment has been censored by the US government.*]

  • we need the internet for homework, work it self

  • If they made the technology TO put all these movies, shows, etc etc, then WHY outlaw it? Its a complete law that Obama should think for once to acually give americans a break. He has made the nation debt triple, let us have our interenet rights! Bad enough we have to deal with viruses, hackers, and trolls. But now you wish to ban us using facebook, youtube, even MINECRAFT.

  • we don't want SPONGEBOB... WE WANT FREEDOM!

  • DISLIKE THIS BULLSHITTTTTT

  • Author of SOPA, Lamar Smith (tx) HOME ADDRESS PUBLISHED

    STANCEFORFREEDOM . com

  • I feel empathy to the creaters of the show when somehting gets pirated and piratists are scum low life cheap skates who would rather claim benefits than work and earn miney. However sopa and pipa is a unsufficient way of preventing piracy abd we cause calatoral damage and outrage by democratic citizebs who have the right of freedom of expression!

  • Viacom and all of it's subsidiaries are so full of shit. They're making trillions upon trillions of dollars, they don't need any more. Things like piracy is what keeps a balance in the economy. Viacom doesn't need any more money...

  • screw all you rich fks that spit out all your bullcrap bout wondering where your next check is comming from that is a load of crap you fkn ppl make more in a day then i make in a 2 wk pay period..I can understand the movies n music but your talking about TAKING OUR RIGHTS away on the net to gain CONTROL and MONEY tell the truth that is what its really about! There is enough war and bull crap going on in the world as it is you ppl do this and your just gonna create nothing but a HUGE shitstorm!

  • "oh yeah yall are getting free stuff and im wondering when im goin to get my next pay check?" BITCH STFU u making millions of fucking dollars but u wondering where your paycheck is at???? WTF!!! I kind of understand what yall are trying to do but the answer isnt censoring the fucking interne!!!

  • if you'r creating music and and filmography just to juice money out of people, you are making it for the wrong reasons, my take

  • Let's talk about the real reason they want SOPA and PIPA to pass. They want control over the internet. Protecting peoples copyrights and intellectual property is only a mask to their real agenda. Plus, if these pass it will be the end of the internet as we know it. And like bf2lover42 said the comedians and artists will have to continually watch what they say or be sued. Bye-bye freedom of expression.

  • People must know, that whatever enters the internet, cannot simply LEAVE the internet. This is unjust, and most politicians are probably NOT pro-internet. It destroys the internet as we know it, and with these two acts enforced, there just won't be any fun in it. Plus, if these such big corporations are against people stealing their shit, then why bother posting it up on the internet when you KNOW it will happen anyways.

  • knowledge is second hand. if knowledge is illegal then everyone would be dumbed down. if people don't download shit, then you would have no exposure, which is what you want, more exposure equals more profit. If you can't protect your shit then stop whining, get an education on how to protect your commodity first before making a video full of weasel words and other logical fallacies.

  • So viacom is behind this. DAMN BASTERDS

  • Its wrong to steal a 30 cent pack gum, its felony to steal a $30,000 car , but a $30,000,000 movie is put up on the internet and people don't blink an eye.

    Some of those $30,000,000 movies sell for $5 in the bin in walmart. It seems she is saying unless we get money for our product it is illegal. So if a flea market is selling a rack of dvds or vhs tapes, then hollywood is not making money off of them, then that must be illegal to huh ?

    what a stupid bitch

  • OK, one unrelated observation: What's the deal nowadays with so many girls/women talking in that incredibly annoying raspy, cutesy voice? Their voices come and go as they're speaking a la Princess Leia as the bounty hunter in Jedi. It's up there with the "Duck Face," which is equally annoying and NOT attractive.

  • i dont fell bad about downloading music for free because i saw mtv cribs

  • Well i already wrote to and called my representatives and informed them that a vote in favor of SOPA or PIPA is a guarantee that i will vote them out of office on their next election. Thats a promise.

  • Sponge Bob won't come back :( haha, pathetic.

  • Why the fuck are there so many likes on this video? You realize that these bills will be the end of the free internet, right? You realize that this is the first step to us ending up like

    China?

  • @kyrakyramyra My assumption is that most of the Likes are people expressing support for the annotations, and most of the Dislikes are people expressing disgust with the original video. That's my hope, anyway!

  • Wait.. No more internet means no more PORN?!

  • Yes, just destroy all that has been built so you can have a bigger house and more of things you as a human do not even need. You think you need them because you seem to be blind and no one is there to help you.

    ...oh except everyone who keeps telling you this, but you are not just blind but also deaf, so you cannot hear.

  • This is a bunch of bullsh*t. The only thing they want is to protect their money.

  • Do they really think I would bother to watch MTV and VH1's garbage award shows if they weren't easily accessible/illegally posted??

  • I notice they all have enough money to spend £1000 on getting teeth bonded.

  • IM FEEL LIKE WATCHING THE MATIX ONLINE....WHO IS WITH ME

  • If sopa passes It won't stop anything. new ways to pirate will come out days after and nothing will be any different

  • Well this video is very sad and depressing for greedy people with envy of the power that people have. If you make a movie it doesn't have to cost billions of dollars that's so ridiculous. With all the money generated by all the movies ever made everyone on earth by now could have had free dental lol.

  • sopa pipa = no youtube

  • all you greedy companies.. make your own internet. don't ruin ours.

  • sure it's a felony to steal a 30 cent pack of gum, but it's same felony these major companies commit every day robbing the american people of their hard earned money for things that are made dirt cheap overseas. its sad how major corporations have to send the little men to the american public and make us feel bad to support this crap. yet these companies can't even take a fraction of the billions of dollars they pocket YEARLY and use it to support the people who make their company what it is.

  • so are they saying that sopa and pipa is a good thing or bad? so is the government now trying to be the world copyright police?

  • They still reach money for what they do, so what the fuck is the problem about illegally watching something, now they want us to became slaves of their monopoly by buying their stupid products and programs that doesn't have such a good content, so why paying to make them even more rich just for do stupid things on tv. FREE INTERNET !

  • Heres the down low: artists like lil wayne, gucci mane, and all those illiumanti bitches want more money for there music...so the goverment will make that happen...then the government will arrest you for pirating the illegal music/videos that you "stole" its a win/win situation for the money whores

  • if I made movies

    I would reather people watch my stuff for free

    and be fans

    then people be saying fuck that,I'm not paying 1.99

    just to fucking watch a show

  • you can pretty this up as much as you want to, but reality of the situtatuon is it is ABSOULUTE fucking garbage bill. enough said. fuck your stupid video.

  • control on piracy ended with the vcr and dvr.... u could record a movie a\when ever you want and then with the vcr it would be on a tape not much u could do then with a tape but then a vhs dvd converter came out now u can use a vcr to recrd the converter to put it on disc and then put it on the internet. and after the converter came out a dvd recorder came out so the bill is stupid and will ruin the internet. what our arrogant goverenment doesnt relieze with will not just affect the US but......

  • Someone is ripping off your shitty product that has already made billions of dollars. Poor you. Fuck you. Fuck all of you. I hope the world burns in my lifetime. I'm so sick of big business ruinning everything. Bring on the bullets and bombs.

  • I like the text going on :P

  • I think people need to stop caring so much about the big corporations' products and shows. The latter preys upon your addiction to their products to the point where they enslave you with them and blackmail you with them. If you take Sponge Bob away, then all that happens is that Sponge Bob gets taken away, but Sponge Bob fans would see it as "The Sky is Falling!" when it really isn't. We need to rely less on mass media entertainment, and give more support to local +/or independent creatives.

  • When I try get on craiglist and u can because of this stupid crap thanks a lot sopa/pipa for blocking when people try to make money I can wait to some one to put in the vote to stop this band on web sites 😡👎

  • how about you counter it and put everything on the internet yourself for free and only get paid by adverisment. Hello people aren't making millions a year like you. So sorry you can't buy your 5th BMW.

  • This is not about privacy. This is about government control. FIGHT THIS BILL.

  • they make billions and they cry

  • Viacom.. Problem? Also.. You mad?

  • Please watch this and see what your board of directors and chair has done to your industry.

    This guy is right on. But I seriously doubt you know why they did this.

    STOP SOPA! Michael Mozart cNBC PIPA Protect IP Sue Public cNet BitTorrent Pirate Bay Reddit Anon

  • I develop software, and yes I want to stop piracy, but there are two really big problems here. 1) Our government should not control this because it will get abused, 2) This is a business problem that a business is pushing off on the government to fix.

    The entertainment business needs to invest in better technology.

  • I used the internet and I dont live in the US , without the internet local businessses outside the US would fail 

  • Anytime you think government can help?!? Think again. This bill is nothing more than the suppression of the 1st amendment and big business control over ideas. In other words if you have a good idea submit it to Columbia Pictures for permission

  • there's a big difference between digital and real item's to me having video's art books online is 1 thing that needs to be protected but when some one make's the same thing that some one can buy from a store should be gone after the net hurts no one the people that steal and sell the items to store's and people do STOP SPOA and PIPA

  • GREED

  • hey... what does minecraft have to do with this

  • SOPA/PIPA are just a diversion our gov. is using,again! Remember the patriot act? I,like many, fell for it. I thought "I have nothing to hide, and if it helps to stop terrorism then I'm on board" If we only knew. Well, now we do. Piracy is just the diversion to get us on board. The big picture? Gov. wants to censor(control) the internet(information)and this is the first baby step towards that goal. They already control our TV news, Don't let them get their hands on the only thing we have left.

  • First world problems. Be grateful for your clean water, warm houses, apple computer, and especially your totally rad tattoos.

  • WOW this amazes me... Piracy been going on in every other country for years. So now because the economy is bad and people are making a decision whether to buy groceries or your toys or go to the movies... They're lashing out ... Welcome to America and 5 yrs later what everyone else has been going thru.

  • the solution is: LOWER YOU FUCKING PRICES!!! SO THAT PEOPLE WILL CHOOSE YOUR PRODUCT OVER THE PIRATES. we consumers don't like piracy as well, but lets face the "OBVIOUS TRUTH.." consumers will buy the same product for for less cost that the same product which is expensive!! then you tell us we can't have R.O.I. if we sell cheap. STFU!! pirates gain billions of dollars for selling it cheap w/ lower quality. how much more if you sell you product cheap with your specific quality.. think!!!

  • The freedom of speech is one of the most imortant things. Don`t make yourself a slave. This is dangerous, the next step could be that politicians use their new tool to cover the truth and censor critical content on the web. The people in the video are already rich, thats more than a regular person will ever have. They make me angy because they are trying to look like Bambi dying with that background music.

  • Hey look pal, how's about leaving some of these captions up for more than a second so people can actually read the whole thing without scrolling back. Kind of hard to defend parasites looking for free crap wherever they can get it. I do disagree with some of this stupidity, the world needs corn and wheat more than some stupid movie which is just entertainment.

  • watz next you gonna charge us for the air we breath??? boooo hooo So you'll make a million dollars instead of a trillion...these ppl have HUGE GIGANTIC BALLZZZ of all the things that we are going thru today in this country and this world you choos now to cry about bootlegs F YOU!!!

  • MINECRAFT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

  • when asking nicely doesnt work as shown in 6:10 usually ends up in violence a little heads up people its in the bible NWO !!!

  • Fuck you hollywood no internet censorship, and my best advice for you nobody supports piracy but internet censorship is the main concern.

  • If you worked really hard on a piece of media and are very passionate about something you made, why wouldnt you want hundreds of billions of people seeing it???? you are all still getting by. You are all still benefiting, people arent that naive that they cant root the source of something based on their own judgement and if they cant? then are they worth your time in the first place? you think they would actually pay for something you did anyway? you people suck!

  • While I don't think for a second that these excessively rich media bureaucrats need any more money, that will never be a justification for stealing their work. I decided a while back to stop torrenting/downloading simply because I knew it was stealing, and I know you also know it's stealing. Man up and pay for what you take, or permit people to freely steal your wages, belongings, etc.

  • censorship is not an option...there always will be possibilities to bypass that..

    first of all,, how the fack are these media products (music, movies etc) ending up in the pirates hands?

    you must solve this problem...better copywrighted dvds, dont upload full movies, fire pirating employees

    Thats why nobody blinks an eye to a 30 mill dollar movie become free to download from illegal sources

    Man always whats shit for free,,,,you just have to make it harder for them to try to steal your stuff

  • i have on idea this might be a big change.

  • What a bunch of hoo-haa. Seriously Viacom. I don't even watch half of your crap. And the shows I do watch are usually on Netflix, your website, or hulu; which is paid for.

    I think its illegal for you, VIACOM, to be stuffing down the throats of the American public shows like Jersey Shore and Flavor of Love, and be expected to be paid for it.

    If anything the internet is proving that we do not need you to be entertained, and you are afraid of it. We can get entertainment from anywhere at anytime.

  • All this video did was make me not want to watch movies or even waste money on cable, The fact that I know that there money hungry -.-

  • You dont care about your content, you care about the profits your losing

  • 2:48 Is that Minecraft I see? (Computer Screen)

  • Sue the people that spread the pirate software, the people that released the decoders the crackers. This people are the companies you ALL work for, so you sue them. Make them pay and not the people that was thought to how to use the pirate software, the big companies expected this would happen. Hell, they basically planned the entire thing. You all are a bunch of tools to this multi billion companies, that will prey on the poor to gain more money. Open your mind, open your eyes.

  • a scientist looking for a cure to cancer will make 60,000 at best, while 1 single movie, music, sports star will make 10 million each a year.

    That makes sense

  • Smoke Screen fuck you don't use the internet then bitch, restrict your product to non internet sources. BOOWHOO you don't have work join the rest of us, plus getting your product out there ultimately promotes it. This shit is shut drivel and the corny sentimental music in the background makes me laugh.

  • Piracy isn't a legal issue it's a service issue. Nobody wants to spend $20 on a CD that only has one good song. Nobody wants to buy a DRM MP3 that they can't put on any other device.

    Make a distribution system that is CONVENIENT and AFFORDABLE and people will give you their money. Look at iTunes, Steam, Pandora, Netflix, Hulu.. they are all successful distribution systems.

  • Just one more way they are starting to clamp down on the free exchange of knowledge and thought and ideas.

    Fuck this bullshit. This is Nazi Germany type shit right here.

  • These f***ing people are incredibly blind. If they think they are going to stop filesharing because they want it to by some government then they got another thing coming!

  • Well posting comments might offend someone....lets make it illiegal

  • this is bull shit

  • HEY cOMPANIES ...Lower the prices of toys , blu rays, dvds , music cds... and sure the people are going to buy more .....all the masive products cost nothing compare the prices of that products in the market ... dont f u ,,,k the internet .... Only lower the prices

  • Noble goals of trying to stop piracy, but they're going about it the wrong way.

    Coming from an IT background and having read through both bills... all that would happen is that internet security would be compromised and people would find loopholes around the measures.

  • This will be the beginning of the destruction of the free world wide web. They will blacklist who they deem proper or improper for us. Write congress and tell them you want to continue to search for what you want, when you want, how you want and share with who you want on the free world wide web.

  • I will boycott all films coming from America if this go through

  • I download it! I listen to it! and if i like it I'll buy it! End of story! Besides,Theres too many crappy american movies and music out there. But if you're hella good! I'll support your ass and buy your product! So shut da fuck up!

  • I bet GOD forbid a starving child steal food or gum

  • I wonder how many starving human beings are stealing

  • almost every person, that uses internet daily , has downloaded a movie/song... at least once in their lifetime, so are you really going to screw everyone that uses internet

  • dont worry im on downloading old games....ILLEGALLY

  • pirate and proud, fucking capitalists

  • All these people look like they are really well off! They have electric guitars for decoration! 3:42 Also that sad piano tune. The guy who composed it could become famous if people copy it and spread it all over the internet. People would want to know more about the source material! and thus benefiting the artist's exposure.

    I think that piracy helps media & innovation spread! it makes the source more popular and gets them more money.. SOPA and PIPA are going to DESTROY THIS and the internet!

  • Every one of these smug assholes looks pretty darn well off to me. They're entitled to make a fair return of their work. Fair. Not exorbitant. It looks like they're doing just fine.

  • "... was watched millions of times... ILLEGALLY"

    Nevermind that it was put on TV for free anyway.

  • Fuck SOPA! its been put away! +1 freedom of speech!

  • Screw Viacom, bunch of corporate money hogs. 

  • This is how I see piracy. The great majority of people who pirate are people who cannot afford it or can't get it through conventional means. Aka, a poor person with a PC, a teenager without a credit card, a person trying to get a song that is NOT available in his country for sale (I couldn't find the Apocalyptica album "Path" legally in the US for the life of me! It was only being sold in EU digital stores). So, these people were not going to buy it anyways. This way at least you get free ad.

  • @TheFotc77 You do realize you're supporting monopoly as you said. So all small business will be destroyed because it won't have a chance to start, and all competition to big business will cease, thereby allowing big business to do whatever they want and charge whatever they want for their product regardless of what you think.

  • Free internet is gradually changing the world for the better and it is bringing us all closer together. Destroying that would prove to be a very a big mistake for humanity. Those who claim to lose money clearly do not understand the real agenda behind this S.O.P.A. act.

    The priority should be people, not money! It is sad to see that all those in charge of big corporations are almost all con artists and charlatans.

    We, the people are as much to blame for letting it happen.

  • When it comes to the part where it says no one wants them to loose there jobs I do. If I had the power to put all of hollywood out of business I would.
