With PROTECT IP Waning, Big Content Tries to Outflank

The lobbyists for Big Content don’t ever seem to let up, they’re beginning to lose ground on the Internet Blacklist Bill (PROTECT IP) but already they’re preparing their next move. This week a “Ten Strikes Bill”, which would make streaming or embedding copyrighted content a felony offense, is set for a vote by the Senate.

This bill has been proposed by Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) just as she is set to speak at the Netroots Nation conference, in honor of her past support for Net Neutrality. Lets hope the conference-goers call out the Senator for her hypocritical positions on Internet freedom.

Help us let them know they can’t get away with this, email your legislator to show your opposition to this bill.
