Well-Armed Lambs: The Real Way To Get Congress To Understand SOPA | PandoDaily

After watching a couple of debates on the SOPA issue, I’ll admit to being more in the dark than when I started — it just seems like one or both parties must be outright lying about the effects of the bill. They’re not debating its merits and downsides as a measure for combating piracy, they just seem to be talking about two different pieces of legislation. My gut says we shouldn’t be doing anything to make it easier for huge corporations to exercise their inherent litigiousness against the little guy, but respecting copyright is legitimate issue and if the bill really would only effect overseas organizations it doesn’t seem unreasonable.
