@~18:00 The only reason you can make money with free distribution of art is because copyright is the norm. If copyright weren't the norm, you wouldn't be able to make money off of your podcasts/other free stuff.

SOPA directly translated into Swedish means "Trash/garbage"

SOPA, as bad as it seems is nothing compared to ACTA, (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) Insomuch because, although it has been in the making for years, it has completely bypassed the democratic process by being deliberately kept from the public. If you don't believe me go look it up. Canada, the USA, Singapore, S. Korea, Japan, new zealand, and morocco have already signed it.

@LeonidRozumenko , I wonder, can patent law prevent an inventor from selling his invention because some leading corporation believes it's too similiar to its own product? Answer: yes. Does it happen in practice? Answer: Yes, all the time. Question: who holds most patents and who is in a best position to acquire even more? Answer: leading corporations.

@rankingtrevor Yeah, because this definitely won't have any effect on any other country in the world. At all. Nope.

Who gives a fuck. This is taking place over in America... Fuck America

Steph agreed with Stef so much I could literally picture him humping his leg.

Either SOPA is a conspiratorial attempt to censor the internet because communication is paramount for the uprising that have happened recently and will be for any future ones and they don’t want that.
Or it is an attempt of corporations to hold onto dinosaur business models, the head of Valve said it best to beat pirate sites provide a better service.
Best of all it turns out the companies pushing SOPA are the ones who had a monopoly on the pirating software go figure

I used to buy a lot of CDs because of music that I discovered here on YouTube that had been used in people's videos. Then the corporations started getting aggressive about forcing these videos to be taken down. It shocks me how many of my favorited videos from the past disappeared. I rarely buy music anymore. The idiotic corporations have no idea how much business they may have lost from people like me. It's also a shame because some of those videos were quite creative works of art themselves.

I wonder, could this Law protect an inventor from being robbed by some leading corporations?
