Re: Issa: Piracy bill would give Holder ‘broad new powers to police the Internet’

Piracy bill would give Holder 'broad new powers to police the Internet
---
the internet has to be policed to some degree ... the issue is giving
the power not only to an Attorney General but to any individual or
single organization.
this is as fucked up as giving Obama, Holder, the DOJ or any
individual the right to impede our immigration laws.
The president nor the DOJ should be able to tell our state and local
police not to enforce federal immigration laws.
Individuals should not be allowed to decide whether or not a law
should be enforced.

Proponents of the bill say it protects the intellectual property
market
----
Critics of the term "intellectual property" argue that the increased
use of this terminology coincided with a more general shift away from
thinking about things like copyright and patent law as specific legal
instruments designed to promote the common good and towards a
conception of ideas as inviolable property granted by natural law.
Some critics of intellectual property, such as those in the free
culture movement, characterize it as intellectual protectionism or
intellectual monopoly, and argue the public interest is harmed by
protectionist legislation such as copyright extension, software
patents and business method patents.
