Anything Hollywood is for, we all should be against.

Here's a bit of law to ponder on. First, Copyrights:
Quote:
It can be argued that Congress has exceeded its authority, the life of an author +70 years is hardly a limited time. The same can be said of the life of "Works Made For Hire." But that is a layman's argument and hardly a legal argument. Regardless, contrast those IP (Intellectual Property) rights with patent rights (another form of IP): Quote:
In order to quash SOPA and PIPA, it must come from a genuine ground swell movement. In the face of such a large lobby group however, it may not be possible to derail. I urge everyone to contact their federal representatives by phone, mail and email. The more the better. 1 http://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ15a.pdf 2 http://www.uspto.gov/smallbusiness/patents/ |
