“Because the biggest producers of content on the Internet are not Google and Yahoo — they’re us – we’re the ones getting policed. The real threat to the enactment of PIPA and SOPA is our ability to share things with one another.”
-Clay Shirky, in his “emergency” TED talk about SOPA and why it would create a “consumption-only Internet.”
but it wouldn’t. It would create an Internet that is virtually free of Traditional Media. With 2 Billion Internet users, Traditional Media is trying to make the most idiotic move yet. If SOPA succeeds, we will have no choice by to reblog ourselves. the Internet Users will make the filmed content that others will mash up/re-blog.
There are a lot of people in Traditional Media with MBA’s. Did they not think this through?
