That is scary. When we first hear about this, our first thought was they wanted to stop people from copying stuff from my site. Then we read further. Really, doesn't Congress have more pressing issues to tackle? Although this is the first issue that has liberals and Tea Party united! BTW, Check out the video "The Day the LOLCats Died."

Eric and Flynn said...

We didn't do a post about it but we signed the petition for international visitors.

Mariodacat said...

I didn't post anything on the protest, but did write my representative and issued a few tweets too.

Au and Target said...

Quite right. Politicians should not be allowed this sort of power.

BTW, Target is much better. Thanks for the purrs!

The Cat From Hell said...

This is a tough issue, Who benefits? Only the big guys.
Do Warner's and Disney give the artists that create royalties?
They way I see it, it should be like the Drug companies.
They have a period of time to make their profits after releasing a new drug. Then it is open season.

The internet is such a powerful place. With wikipedia blacking out, and many, many, other websites, I don't see how they could possibly pass these. On another note, I don't know how I survived with out Wikipedia for a day! LOL. All of my random questions throughout the day went unanswered.
