During the time of the debate around SOPA or PIPA, I found the Cato Institue particularly useful for two reasons: 1. There are a lot of people who won't read something from an organization with a liberal reputation regardless of the merits of the argument. 2. Their arguments matched up closely with mine. From an economic and game theory perspective I was mostly concerned about the implicit favoring of incumbent market participants, where upstarts wouldn't be able to build a business involving anonymous user-generated content. And, that there would be fewer lively communities and discussions overall with anonymous contributors.
