It takes money, and it takes time that I'd rather spend building my company, but it's super fucking important.
And I am positive that I am making a difference and that my actions will directly lead to this being dragged out longer, being amended to make it more palatable (less bad), or in the best but least likely case, being killed.
Being killed isn't really the goal by the way, the entertainment industry has been doing this long since before the Internet (they thought the VCRs would destroy the movie industry). The goal is to help alleviate some of their specific concerns with specific legislation, rather than broad strokes that impact all of us widely.
The DMCA wasn't great, but it hasn't been that big a deal for us to work with and still build great companies.
