What’s wrong with SOPA

These two pictures are worth more than a thousand words. Because the images presented such an intriguing message I wanted to use it here, but before I could I needed to do some fact checking. It took only minutes to confirmed that Conrad Murray was sentenced to four years in prison for killing Michael Jackson and under the proposed Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) the maximum penalty for unauthorized streaming of copyright material is five years in prison. Those are the facts. I’ll let you decide what it says about congress and the justice system.
For more information about the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the related senate bill the Protect Intellectual Property Act (PIPA), read my blogpost, Old Media and Bad Law.
