Copyright, SOPA, and MegaUpload: What's the Deal? | Mondays with Spider Ep1

This is my first shot at this format and I'm sure it will take time to evolve so please be kind! If you guys have suggestions on what to do differently to improve, by all means let me know.

As far as the topic is concerned, please keep in mind that I believe reform of these laws MUST take place and that I describe the current environment in relation to how the laws exist today.

Adding laws to make it easier to apply current law is NOT acceptabe (i.e., SOPA). We should be able to freely download music, movies, applications, etc. so long as there is SOME method in place for giving back to those who hold the copyright on these items and it is reasonable.

@DracroRexz Lol! It's funny because you've never met me and your prejudice against overweight people proves the stupidity I your case along with you! You meant to do that right?

if you think SOPA is bad, you should see ACTA. If passed, the government will watch everything you do on the internet, listen to your phone calls, read your e-mails, be able to disconnect your internet, ITS FUCKING BULLSHIT. unless you want the internet destroyed, spread the word about ACTA /watch?feature=player_embedded­&v=N8Xg_C2YmG0

@etismyname: you have no idea what a 3rd world country is. They don't even have electricity or running water. Stop running your mouth. You sound stupid.

[AngelixArch]

Any of you paying attention to ACTA?

@NextGenTactics

I am not talking about extreme poverty, I am talking about those lower to middle class in 3rd world country. They can afford a console and a few games every once a while, but what's the biggest problem at the moment? DLC, Short of content games, 5 hours game length etc. they aren't living in a country where games are set at their living standard price. They aren't like you, they don't get "other games" if this one isn't a good one, they have to pick one and hope for the best.

[Proto7y93Ness]

ads are OK ill watch em', but i WILL NOT watch a fing 13min political ad, that is unacceptable in length if it was, 3 mins i would take it on the chin like a champ, but 13min is to god damn long.

btw maybe 22 mins or so like a "Real" tv show would most like work a bit better spider.
