Backlash Builds Against US Copyright Blacklist

An anonymous reader writes "The release last week of the US copyright blacklist is beginning to generate a backlash in countries around the world. Reports from Canada, Europe, and Asia all note that the US claims are very suspect and that the report is little more than an attempt to bully dozens of countries into following the US DMCA model."

You should read Atlas Shrugged. It's about how the creators and inventors of the world do as you suggest and collectively decide to stop contributing their work to the ungrateful world they live in due to the lack of compensation they receive.

By the way, "doucheweenie" is a really corny insult.

Agreed. But apparently its you and me who 'dont get it' because we are 'clinging to outdated business models' and in the future apparentrly all games will make money from adverts and selling virtual hats, whilst musicians will produce the same quantity and qaulity we have now whilst somehow holding down day jobs in wal-mart.

No, I don't gunderstand how that shit is going to work either...
