My Letter to the Senate on PIPA
- nextparadigms 15y agoI don't know that much about the OPEN Act. I think it's not even finished yet. But it could be a good way to distract the politicians that support SOPA/PIPA, at least so they don't think that what SOPA and PIPA are proposing is the only way to stop piracy. It could be useful if it creates confusion when voting for SOPA and PIPA, get them to vote against those bills, and then we can deal with the OPEN Act. Darrell Issa seems to have a lot more common sense than the SOPA/PIPA sponsors, but after seeing how ITC can ban popular (HTC) products from the market over some trivial patents, I'm not confident that they will deal with the copyright issues in a sane way, either.
