From TechDirt:
Mike Masnick on the myth that SOPA or PIPA will educate people on the evils of downloading:
Kids aren’t lacking in education or morals or anything like that. They just don’t see what’s so wrong about accessing what the technology allows access to. If the industry hadn’t wasted so many years and so much money on legal tricks and lobbying for stricter copyright laws, and instead invested that money and effort into providing better legitimate and licensed services, those kids would have gladly jumped to those offerings.
