Hollywood’s Insistence on New Draconian Copyright Rules Is Not About Protecting Artists
Electronic Frontier Foundation: Stop us if you’ve heard these: piracy is driving artists out of business. The reason they are starving is because no one pays for things, just illegally downloads them. You wouldn’t steal a car. These arguments are old and being dragged back out to get support for rules that would strangle online expression.
