Why Is 'broken Web' Should Be Broken :
The Web can not be perfect, but SOPA is a reactionary Copyright bill broken. One idea: 'broken web' ironically is what is doing the work.Stop online piracy Act (Sopa) will starve the network of the oxygen it needs, sending its order in March and censor U.S. Internet as we know.
One of the ironic to an outsider, a country that is not freedom of speech itself, a country that replicates as a "free country".
And this comes from someone who believes that the Patriot Act was bad enough.
With the realization that Sopa passed by Congress and becomes law, one must ask why the sudden change of copyright powers to the powers of government, apparently a slippery slope of censorship amendments Chinese style?
The copyright system is broken, but it is also the web. Whole system needs reform, they should continue to be broken - as the basic principles are observed in the network.

The problem is: there are no rules on the web, only the rules of law. And, with an average, connected to the network that covers all but two countries on the planet, there will be benefits across this bill that threatens to bring freedom to the expression in line to an end.
And 'that the copyright, although dangerous in certain industrial sectors, has been used as an excuse to start monitoring the Internet?
The Internet is more than one way to view the information. And 'exploded in a rapid and uncontrolled communications center, a vast network of information and the Western community has full access. How long can we expect the state structures, rather than trying to tie its citizens?
When peer-to-peer were first popular traction, especially among the young tech-savvy generation, all industries - including entertainment and music - were able to adjust their business models.
They had the opportunity to offer better value for money to their customers, instead of waiting for release dates staggered throughout the world, and costs $ 16.99 and the CDs were suddenly able to share and download the same product in a few minutes for free.
No wonder that was requested.
Instead of changing with time, the world's most concentrated their efforts on trying to crush the insurgency. They tried to approach the "scapegoat" individual responsibility "leechers" - those who download, but not to redistribute in turn - exorbitant amounts of money that would never be able to pay.
The dismantling of torrent sites that are linked to individual torrent file to create a precedent that some website owners made a parody of divided, weak legal systems will be introduced across borders, even if it is not yet begun to scratch the surface of "endemic" problem.
Governments around the world focus on broader. On the other hand, that the offer meets the perverted Hollywood's government is focusing on one of the key itself.
Citizens will not accept a government that censors the Internet.
Consider the theory of a Pandora's box, the illegal copyright infringement, piracy, or "stealing", whatever you may call it, is engraved in a modern society seeks to limit and control.
How does the public react if the U.S. would be facing a situation similar to the British - which takes into account the economic situation can not be such a fantasy? They would easily accept a restriction on the amount of Facebook or Twitter indefinitely? Week? Months?
This could be a "compelling reason" to limit and control the social network. Is not this in turn limits how we communicate and, if necessary, to hold peaceful protests and public pressure?Oh, hey China. Why are you smiling at us, oh so smug?It is also amazing how many people fighting for this bill is not well versed in technology. Take Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas): "I am not a technical expert on this," he exclaims.
Would not it make more sense, that sharing copyrighted material "phenomenon" must be investigated and technology experts, like the whole scenario is based on the technology, so it's possible?
Only reaction will probably come once the younger generation. In fact, there are children still in high school, who know more about programming and DNS entries as most of them claiming to Congress. They are looking for alternative solutions, find and widely available.
But who applies the "Great Firewall of America": the police copyright infringement in Hollywood, or law enforcement agencies of the United States? If this is your first, rather than the second, both routes of sense, at least in some way become part of the scene at the end of V for Vendetta.
Act with huge hand over power to rights holders, however small, which in turn causes online entrepreneurship to stagnate or even decline. Who wants to spend time and money in a business that could be arrested within days, while the lawyers take their cut and discuss the issue?
Innovation can be exploded by the freedom of the Internet and the rapid expansion of social media, but this bill could pinch off the heat.
SOPA is to catch those who violate copyrights.
It focuses more on how to do it. The third provision of the service as a government regulator, or even a member of the private sector - because governments do not like outsourcing, especially in shaded areas stand out from the bench - means that Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr that the world can responsibility immediately. Small businesses can be beaten with fraudulent or difficult to prove the alleged perpetrator, and stopped a few days.The average user will not be able to circumvent the law, but not the average user who violates the copyright in a ground plane.
Beyond everything else, there is no conclusive evidence that, without this law, the copyright system fails. There are companies that adapt their business model, and find a cure for a solution that is partially created.
Put The Perspective Of Copyright And Relative Proportion. :
The list of opponents to the bill along my arm. Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, AOL, Yahoo!, eBay, Mozilla - and, of course, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) - opposed the bill and may enact measures .
But instead of fighting child abuse imagery, the fight line against terrorism and crime on the other hand, Hollywood is pricing their efforts of self-preservation among other things.
Web policies which envelops the economy, businesses and the public are well known and well documented. But something is heinously wrong, when the balance of power moves to the point where the purpose of laws to protect the music and film industries are more serious, limitation of civil liberties and violate the laws and report together to prevent the spread sexual abuse online.
Put a bandage on a wound will not heal. All in all, you can not manage something you do not understand the nature of.
But Congress will try anyway.
