PIPA In A Nutshell

wilwheaton:

Stolen from Fark, which has the best SOPA/PIPA protest I’ve seen today:

 

• http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R41911.pdf - provides the absolute best summary I’ve seen of the bill, if you don’t want to read the actual bill itself. It also states the concerns about the bill.
• http://www.publicknowledge.org/blog/coica-v-20-protect-ip-act does a great job of explaining WHY the wording is vague, instead of just stating the the wording is “too vague” (which is vague in itself, and what I’ve seen most places )
• http://blogs.law.stanford.edu/newsfeed/files/2011/07/PROTECT-IP-letter-final.pdf - Letter from 108 law professors, again pointing out the problematic sections of the bill.
• For reference, the bill itself: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/BILLS-112s968rs/pdf/BILLS-112s968rs.pdf
