I don't think you'll find a lot of friends of SOPA on here. Copyright was meant to protect IP, and ensure that creatives get paid, unlike what used to happen to blacks who wrote blues tunes in the first half of the 20th cen. I support copyright on principle, but they've turned it into something new. I support free investment, too, but not when the "investing" is done by supercomputers trying to trade a millisecond before human investors can, which is now considered "good business practice". I think that's the state of copyright. It has nothing to do with protecting creatives any more. Its just about corporate greed, lawyers figuring out how they can squeeze another few dollars into the bottom line.
