SOPA and the Protect IP Act are being protested today with massive internet blackouts of popular sites. I'm very glad; though I think people may be overreacting to the bills, I'd much rather err on the side of tech companies, especially after reading about some of the obscenely large fines levied against those who lose lawsuits with RIAA. I trust tech companies far more than the whole of the music industry.
The sonnet I am writing isn’t here;
It has been censored. This, the one you read,
Is very different in its message, creed,
And wording than its predecessor. Fear,
When I had here discussed an item which
Had not provided royalties to he
Or she who had created it, was easily
The greatest way to put a glitch
Within my sonnet, which had here discussed
A bit of music, movies, or TV
That foreign websites had illegally
Uploaded. Per the law, I’d be entrusted
With diverting traffic from the site:
That’s quite impossible, and thus, the fight.
