Protecting against online piracy is the issue. How to do this without infringing on freedoms of the internet is the challenge.


“POLITICO Breaking News
Obama administration officials said in a blog post today that they would "not support legislation that reduces freedom of expression, increases cybersecurity risk, or undermines the dynamic, innovative global Internet." The White House did not take a definite position on SOPA and the PROTECT IP Act, but said "the DNS filtering provisions in some proposed legislation suggests that they pose a real risk to cybersecurity and yet leave contraband goods and services accessible online." The officials said, however, that legislation is needed to combat online piracy.

SOPA de Hamlet (From an iPhone app called PhoneBook Plus, quite brilliant)
To support, or not to support-, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The bans and fines of outrageous fortune Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them. To support is to be more aligned with developing nations like China, not to support, is to be cast out of countries like France And the great empire of the US of A. Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, let your PhoneBook help spread the words of action. Happy Year Of 2012!
