WashingtonWatch.com is sponsoring a poll with comments in regards to S. 3804, The Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act. Many authors have chimed in explaining the impact of piracy on their ability to make a living.
Some feel S. 3804 will help eliminate e-book piracy on web sites, while others feel it's a step toward censorship. Do you have an opinion?

The authors have really made an impact now, moving the FOR votes into the 60s and leaving the AGAINST voters behind in the 30 percentile range.
ReplyDeleteI see we have at least a couple of Brigaders who posted comments. Thanks for stepping up to the plate.
