Because doing something out of justified frustration against an establishment is called terrorism. |

| I have been following this somewhat, and I have been appalled throughout the whole thing. This country is going back to the times of Standard Oil and the monopolies etc that were allowed back in the day. Bull if you ask me, but nothing we as a people can do. |

I guess this sucks for people who download illegitimate copies of music.
If you don't, no big deal. 
Edit - after actually reading it, this is pretty retarded. Nothing quite like government pandering to big business. |

You're not the slightest bit bothered by the fact that people will be put into prisons equally with rapists and murderers merely for downloading the "intellectual property" of Corporate Record Labels who unjustly plucked the content from both artists and no-talent commercial successes alike?
DOESNT AFFECT ME I DONT CARE PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN DOING WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO! LOL!
Be apathetic due to your suppositions that encroaching fascism "doesn't affect you" if you like, but perhaps you'd best be prepared to present a case for the legitimacy of "intellectual property" as something warranting people's lives being taken from them.
