The government edited it.
never said I supported piracy. I don't support government taking over the internet. it will hurt many of the legitimate businesses. there are people who use youtube and make money off it and it is their main medium of the entertainment. (dom fera, tom ska, etc.) Artists have their own youtube pages. (a7x,Red, etc) and of course there is spotify which lets you listen to all the free music you want when you want to listen to it. and guess what? they (the artists) make money off of it. and as it was mentioned before it wouldn't stop it anyway. look at china. you would be hurting the people who obey the law and doing nothing to those that break it. sopa is the government taking a big step to control the internet under the guise of stopping piracy. what would be the best way to control the people in this era? control the internet.
not to mention violation of the 1st amendment.
