  "The internet is fast, and the laws have to adjusted to address that speed, and to address the international nature of the net."
  
  Are you serious? Then in that case, lets close all courts around the world, they way to slow for the modern fast past society that we live in. Why waste money on them right? From now on its guilty until proven innocent. No objections allowed!

  "Then why does this blog keep saying that Rightshaven is making up laws?"
  
  The court said that, this blog covered it before it did. I understand how you would get confused.

  Your clearly unbiased view of Google aside 'Bob', please tell us how any of those crime cases make up for the fact of lack of due process in the proposed law for the issue at hand?
  
  Did the mob boss and drug boss and whatever boss you keep mentioning get accused and sentenced from a private entity?
  
  Face it 'bob', none of what you're writing has anything to do with how ProtectIP is made to work.

  The question is what is the true public interest?

  The ability to access content from the long term production, or is it short term access to profit for the few at the top?

  Re:

  Let me use a real world example. A guy on a street corner selling drugs, yelling "crack, crack, blow, weed" is in some ways using his first amendment rights to free speech. None of the words are in themselves illegal. He has every right to say whatever he wants on a street corner, if you look at the situation without context.
  
  Actually in this case, they took down the corner to the "dealer" stopping many others who are also there from yelling or talking.
  Regardless however, you can't apply a real world example.
  So both my point and yours are null and void

  Re: Because it's not-- it's about stopping piracy

  "Stopping you from distributing someone else's work is not censorship."
  
  umm, yes it is censorship. You're preventing communication, the communication is neutral to artificial factors. Hence, you are censoring it.
  
  "This site can't make a distinction."
  
  Finally you admit it. Yes, the site allowing communication can't make a distinction.
