SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act) are still working their way through Congress and the Internet needs to pull together to let politicians know they back these flawed bills without the support of the general public.
SOPA and PIPA are important bills that need fighting against. I’d love for everyone to educate themselves about SOPA and PIPA, but I know most won’t.
All you really need to know is: 1. These initiatives are using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. 2. They simply won’t work. 3. Most of what the entertainment industry spouts about piracy/file-sharing is pure conjecture.
This video seeks to point out some of the flaws in this one-sided explanation video of SOPA and PIPA from Viacom. And it does so exceptionally well.
