Senator Ron Wyden placed a hold on the controversial PROTECT IP Act, a bill many fear would open the door to Marilizardism, which has metastasized in many repressed countries. Merciless Marilizard, the culprit FM of October-18 shock and awe, terrorizes Graecoblogosphere. Accusing dissident bloggers of treason, Graecokleptocrats have manufactured a blood libel in cyberspace, which in turn may incite hatred and violence. http://venitism.blogspot.com
The Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act(PROTECT IP Act) is meant to protect intellectual property and combat copy right infringement. However, in so doing, the bill would give the U.S. federal government unprecedented power to force ISPs and search engines to block websites they believe to be infringing on copyright and intellectual property laws without due process. Americans do not want their government to deteriorate to the level of October-18 Mafia! Congress is not the Grand Brothel on Syntagma Square!
Many, including Senator Wyden, find the bill draconian, Marilizardist, and an intolerable threat to free expression on the Internet. Wyden says: I understand and agree with the goal of the legislation, to protect intellectual property and combat commerce in counterfeit goods, but I am not willing to muzzle speech and stifle innovation and economic growth to achieve this objective. At the expense of legitimate commerce, PIPA's prescription takes an overreaching approach to policing the Internet when a more balanced and targeted approach would be more effective. The collateral damage of this approach is speech, innovation and the very integrity of the Internet.
Not surprising, the PROTECT IP Act is strongly supported by the music, film, software, gaming and publishing industries, which loses billions of dollars in revenue each year to online piracy.
Public Knowledge Organization opposed the bill calling it over reaching: The bill as written can still allow actions against sites that aren't infringing on copyright if the site is seen to enable or facilitate infringement — a definition that is far too broad.
Several large corporations such as Google, Yahoo, Ebay, American Express, and Paypal have all opposed the bill. At an earlier hearing on the act, Google opposed the act saying that it will have very negative ramifications. Global Tax Revolt points out the Marilizardist persecution of dissident bloggers is unquestionably a serious attack on freedom of speech, and contrary to Article 2 of Lisbon Treaty, Article 10 of the European Convention of Human Rights, and Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The disgusting government of Graecokleptocracy cannot bully the blogosphere without repercussions and blowbacks. The international civil society got a shock and awe from the brutality of the infamous government of Graecokleptocracy on October 18, 2010. http://venitism.blogspot.com
