the house is considering a bill called a stop online piracy act
uh... it says similar to what the senate has already
passed out of committee that's protected by piak now these sound good right were
protecting intellectual property was stopping piracy who's in favor of
pirates right up thank god there's of course bipartisan
the republicans and democrats have finally gotten together to make sure
that uh... um... perot rifle owners of copyrights
are protected online
dot is that what is actually doing of course not
look out i think that copyright owners should be protected
honestly there's way too much
of pirated movies songs etcetera etcetera
and i know it's a some people jiggling the hahaha i didn't get it for free now
i have not inactive but all i think it's killing even call me square you can call
me grandpa doing or maybe a light
but it's not right
you should pay for that meteor okay
having said that the bills that they have
prit produced now
sold brought there are so outrageous into exactly what they did project
so first of all by this new bill in the house will create new
cause of action he has a wide range of internet sites
for facilitating copyright or trademark infringement that's the stated purpose
plot
look at what happens
as simple allegation
said that the financial aid advertising that works
would be sufficient
the start the process
so all you need is someone saying yeah i've been that's my copyright
uh... and i'm gonna use it against the will and shut down
maybe all of you to maybe you all do
i'm not getting what do you see the rest
now directly in the senate version of the bill
it was always a possible as the applied a website
that were internationally that's right
because we already have a copyright protection law here the united states
first websites that are based
in the u_s_ right
well the house version
also applies at the domestic companies
why 'cause they want to be able to control the whole internet they don't
really give a damn
about copyright protection that's not what this is about
so what produced it
newer small like communication tools might be
on able to bear the cost of doing application of this bill
and uh... they might never be able to get off the ground
okay so as the daily beast explains among many other publications uh... if
you're a small company
in this bills that now in a fact ***
violent allegation that if you have the law
not just if you had fun pirated stuff
but if you are linked to another website that house pirated stuff
that isn't even a link to the pirated stuff
but that is is somehow connected to it you're gone
now has more than a company on the internet gonna survive
if you'd be getting hit with all these legal bills whether it's even justified
or not they're not going to survive that support the whole point of his bell
the most opposed the crush
the small competition
so that they are guys could work
washington one oh one second of all
communications i would qualify as fair use honor copyright law
than anything else on the matter with the legal certainty would likely
included forgiven mainstream sucks
so even if it's not a big site
for example putting up a box is going to say
hazen this would be uh...
what bill o'reilly zero is ridiculous
even though that is perfectly legal
there's an allegation that it isn't legal classic it why prefer every
internet site in the country and in the world
if this bill goes into effect
this bill
out regis it gets worse and worse now that's the companies be able to pick
uh... do all that
but you know what they can also work with the justice department
the bill will allow
the justice department to see court orders our highest fees search engines
financial networks can add networks
compelling them to cut off anywhere site
it means role
so the issue of what is that one
they go to the highest fees in the search engines
and even go add to the financial networks
so and even though you're becoming the you read your domain name with
so they know the people that are
either providing the broadband for for example google
or face book or put our netflix any of these guys right any company your
company
uh... what a whether it's uh... orchestra blogger liberal bloc
they know that they can see that's very that lives in a good that's it
somebody put in allegation is just about medicine is that world shutting down
today
and then second of all or they can go to your bank to do that i mean it is
sold abroad aunt it's ridiculous
sanyo walked into that
the justice department has to consider you role
okay what does that absurd definition of rope the bill that was road so broad
that include any site that allows users to participate by posting commenting or
uploading material including lawful social networking sites cloud storage
tools and on-line communication tools
effect commenter comes on your site imp with the link to a website
that has of a pirated material in other parts of the slightest vip
site is gone it's not
so in the head when you look at all that's what is this
this is a bill that can
allows the government
and any large company
sometimes in the small companies the comment and controlled in it
if they don't like your website they showed up
under the allegations that you are rolled
and that you might be waking to someone that is copyrighted material effect even
if you are not doing a commenters doing a your website can be done and google
could be gone for a link into your web site
okay so you think in this bill is so nice it probably is no chance of passing
the wrong again bob
it is
got wide bipartisan support
well grupo republican but why don't like
we're giving out monopolies
the large companies jumpy
they love it
the democrats was you can see from the list of people who are in favor this
filled it reads like it democrats who's who
of uh...
democratic uh... party funders
so who is in favor of what they call soap opera
hollywood studios because they say you know what
on the wall without the content
and i want to be able to charge against billion dollars back content and if i
can not only shut down the pirated stuff which is right and we know that they
should do
but i could then control other sites with this threat
i'd rather go well i could show that your site right or wrong
or you'd be paying a lot more money
again a monopoly that they were right
policy is in favor
trial lawyers
every article i read said this would be any norma spoon to trial lawyers
catholic we don't even care who wins
but there was no lawyered-up
warner brothers has the laura it'll mean nothing but wall the wall lawsuits
and or the two big part of the democratic party
hollywood it's true allow the studios give a ton of money and isos for the
movie association now led by former democratic senator chris dodd
there's a ton of money to democrats trial lawyers the biggest funders of the
democrats so uh...
who's sponsoring this bill
well not only lamar smith was a deeper servidor
republican with john pirates who was supposed to be a big liberal a democrat
from michigan
perfect so they're both on board and so are a great number of congressmen from
both sides
now you're seeing on that list
pharmaceutical companies you thinking
when you know what the hell was that have you with any right
will talk about a online stuff without about copyrights
wise pharmaceutical visible
because they don't like it there's some websites
are selling things that they don't have a monopoly of
because you know in the u_s_ they barbara politicians
so they get a twelve-year monopoly patent and then the government cannot
negotiate prices
and we cannot import rice from outside the country
but some websites delighted it draws from other places but no gotta shut down
if there's any competition you don't compete that's capitalism no what you do
is you by politicians
to make sure that you shut down your competition
that's quite worrisome
and that's what we have in this country so the former civil companies which are
among the top three donors in washington
and that give tremendously for the republican and democrats are telling all
their bought politicians
hey you get on board to our competition
you do as we said bass or soap was about and then finally unless you see
though obama administration set great number of experts for the house hearings
the sale wotol lovely idea this phillips
perfect shade
change now that change or get out for you
he's changing in that he is clamping down on the internet even more than bush
had ever dared to do
and finally who's an opposition of soap or do we stand any chance
or ron wyden
is there the guy leading the effort and he's already got a great job a block in
the senate
he put a hold on it which any senator can do
now those senators can get beyond that hold
he's so we started electric fishing
and he's asking grassroots people to help that's terrific you should
definitely do that
and you should ship the issue related
and that will help largely
but it was just cause
and a couple of progressive senators would be in massive trouble but luckily
there are other giant companies on our side project
so google face book the day
twitter
you name it
those giant accompanies arson at all hell no
uranium all the power to our competitors whether it's
the broadband providers are with the hollywood studios and you're gonna rob
the internet ovitz freedom which then destroy the whole point of google and
destroys their business model
now so they're their worked out
waging a fight against that by the way also
not only are liberals against this bill almost every major liberal group but
almost every major
grassroots conservative group including the deportees are also against it
because they don't want their website shut down a bit
but again it was just as liberals and conservatives just us
american people fighting we'd be in it
massive trouble comes as congress is shown over and over again
they don't give up
damn about the american people
they care about who they truly represent which is their donors
luckily there's some big corporations on our site
how does fly comes out is entirely on clear
right now
uh... the people in favor of shutting down the internet basically for this
bill
havoc usually
may have all
lot of bipartisan support
joined that flight and make sure this bill passes
no conditions
