I totally disagree that we should leave piracy out of it completely. The bill is called the Stop Online Piracy Act, if we don't mention piracy at all it will look like dodging the issue. We need to say something like
"It claims to be about piracy, but it won't have any effect on piracy because tech-savvy people like pirates can easily get around the restrictions, it will only harm legitimate internet users like you."
From then on the person is inoculated against the "but piracy!" argument.
- billpatrianakos 15y agoThat's one way to do it. That's fair. If it were me I'd only bring up piracy if they did and I wouldn't repeat the word piracy, I'd call it file sharing but I wouldn't go into it more than what's absolutely necessary. We have to do like the Republicans. Pick a slogan and hammer it hard.
