Wikipedia anti-SOPA-PIPA blackout |
|
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
|
Wikipedia has decided to protest against SOPA and PIPA by shutting down the English Wikipedia for 24 hours.

| I allways want to think like boths sides. What are the positive things about new law? |
|
|
|

The positive thing is that authors who are creating content should be payed for their work.
But still the system at the moment is not good and most of the profit goes to music labels and similar organizations, which shouldn't be so.
But the biggest problem is the change in the paradigm that people are innocent until proven guilty.
And with SOPA and PIPA the power is now in the hands of specific individuals. |

I thoroughly support Wikipedia on this, no doubt about that. I don't like acts regarding piracy in general, as they usually tend to act against free resources.  |
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
I think it is fair that authors should be payed for their work and generally I am against piracy.
We also already have laws that regulate this. But with SOPA and PIPA
the freedom of speech and Internet integrity is compromised. |

Ofc that's what I meant. But I just have this strange feeling that all the piracy laws are sort of disputable, let alone SOPA and PIPA.
And I do agree that each of those entrepreneurs should be payed for their job, but I don't mind downloading free music, movies and software at my home. My home is my private space and thus it should be left intact! Nonetheless, Google gave me this today:
Zaradi pritožbe, ki smo jo dobili v okviru US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, smo s te strani odstranili 1 rezultatov. Če želite, si lahko na ChillingEffects.org preberete pritožbo DMCA, ki je povzročila odstranitve.
So when it comes to actually censoring things, it makes me believe that I live in China or sth like that. 
So, like I said, GO WIKIPEDIA!

Hey Erco, what does that paragraph that Google gave you mean?
|
|
|

I'm sorry, I should have thought of that. It says:
Because of the complaint we got from US Digital Millenium Copyright Act, we have removed 1 result from this page. If you wish, you can read the DMCA complaint that caused the removal at ChillingEffects.org.
It sure as hell looks like censorship to me. It could be that this is something else, but I doubt so.

I must say that I don't agree with your opinion. Even if you use it at your own home, it doesn't make it right because this doesn't change the fact that you are using something that somebody produced and you are using this without paying for it.
The problem with software, music and other digital content is that it is easy to make a copy and technology is making hard to prevent illegal distribution. But as I said this does not justify illegal usage.
On the other hand what bothers me is that today authors receive part of the money as most of it goes to content distributors.
And regarding SOPA and PIPA, we also have laws that are preventing piracy, which are maybe indeed not a effective as they should be. But SOPA and PIPA are pushing things too far and the main principle that you are innocent until proven guilty is being changed. If we allow such things this would be a very bad implication on the freedom we are enjoying today.

Of course it's not right, but I think that there should be a leeway for people, because nobody likes restricted access to free resources, especially not at their home. My thinking may not be sophisticated and overly advanced, but tell me it's not true.  Therefore my actual opinion is that this is not the right way to deal with piracy. If they want to stop it, they should start wih the companies where it all begins because whatever the fuck they're doing right now it is going to piss people off and that way noone gets the satisfaction.
