He says that piracy is rampant in the pornography industry but that taxpayer's money should not go towards protecting their IP. He even goes so far as to call pornographic websites illegitimate businesses.
All of this is presented as self evident; there is no need to explain why tax payers money must go towards protecting the IP of the movie industry and not of pornographers.
Just another ridiculous thing to add to the mess that is SOPA.
Luckily, another senator points out that this would pretty much mean that we are allowing some kinds of IP to be rampantly posted and not others, and regardless of personal objections to the material, this is not ok. Unfortunately, all these people are working off of the basic (wrong) assumption that SOPA will actually stop piracy.
