Senator Franken Defends Censoring The Internet Because He Doesn't Think Hollywood Should Have To Change Biz Models?

from the really? dept

Tue, Mar 1st 2011 10:41am — Mike Masnick

We were a bit surprised late last year to see that Senator Al Franken was supporting censoring the internet via COICA (which, yes, is about censoring the internet). After all, Franken has positioned himself as the "internet freedom" politician, and has spoken out repeatedly against attempts to limit speech on the internet. Ars Technica has an interview with Franken, where he delves into his support for COICA, noting that he's heard from those who worry about censoring the internet, but in the end, he thinks it's okay, because he's from the movie/entertainment world, and he doesn't seem to think they should have to adapt to the changing internet:

The other side of this, of course, is that this is about, essentially, stealing copyrighted material and selling counterfeit goods. This goes to tens of billions of dollars in theft. Some of the supporters of this were after the American Federation of TV and Radio Artists, the Screen Actors Guild, the Directors Guild... I happen to belong to all three of those unions. This doesn't just affect the jobs of writers and directors and producers; when they're free to steal all this intellectual material, it changes the business model of a movie. So it really costs the jobs of the technicians and the crew and the craft services people. It changes the entire business model for the industry. It's not just movies and TV, it's everything.

This is pretty disappointing, on any number of levels. First of all, his repeated use of the technically and legally incorrect words "stealing" and "theft" are troubling. Second, his repeating the totally debunked claims that this is somehow costing "tens of billions of dollars." The GAO has already debunked those numbers as having little to no basis, and it's disappointing that Franken would repeat them. But the key point is that yes, of course it changes the entire business model for the industry. But that's what new technologies do. They change the business models for legacy companies and it's not our government's job to protect those legacy companies and their business models, even if our elected officials used to work for those companies.

That said, Franken does suggest that he's heard many of the concerns about COICA and is focused on narrowing its focus significantly, saying that he has "tried to tighten the definition of who could be targeted under the bill" and in the recent hearing on COICA asked a series of questions to make sure that the bill "is narrowly tailored and will not unwittingly lead to the blocking of legitimate speech that is protected by the First Amendment." The problem is that I'm not really sure there's a way to do that effectively -- especially when, prior to COICA passing, Homeland Security already seems to think it can seize domains without any First Amendment considerations, leading to plenty of perfectly legal speech being suppressed. Franken should know better than to think that a bill allowing internet censorship can be crafted to only take down speech of one kind.

It's a little funny and a little depressing: for ages, industry insiders have been claiming piracy is "destroying" the industry, and smarter folks have been pointing out that it's actually just changing the business model. Now, apparently, insiders are adopting it and saying "piracy is changing the business model!" as if that alone is a bad thing.

Infringement (Piracy) is not destroying hollywoood, it is just sending back to a time before, TV reruns, cable, VCR's and DVD's.

I agree with Franken on the basic concept: You shouldn't have to change business models because of unchecked illegal activity. Yes, they will likely have to change models, or more likely go out of business because there are no supportable models for business of this type anymore.

It would be a huge loss to the economy.

Regarding Al, he's a huge hypocrite that I just ignore from now on. His support of the COICA hurts his stance that net neutrality is an issue to take him seriously on. What I am disappointed with Ars about is that they didn't talk to him about the actual question of having broadband compete. It seems all around there's a lot of things that could have been done to improve the experience for consumers but Franken doesn't think about it.

Re:

Somebody paid good money to get those copyright laws in place, and science damn-it those laws need to be enforced!

And damn the expense! Who cares how much it damages our culture, hinders our future, slows the economy, or takes law enforcement away from eating donuts, handing out traffic tickets, investigating murders, or finding rapists, tracking down terrorists... None of that matters if people can get "free" copies of 1's and 0's over the internet.

AC, you're absolutely correct. If purchased laws aren't worth the money, then the average worth of senators and congressman may fall below the millionaire level and lobbyists might stop getting billions of dollars to sway the lawmakers of this country.

AC, you're right. WE ABSOLUTELY MUST ENFORCE THOSE COPYRIGHT LAWS! If we do not, the entire lobbyist/lawmaker economy might fall apart, and that dog don't hunt monsieur.

Re:

Unchecked illegal activity means there is something wrong with the law. Most people are moral and ethical. If there is widespread disobedience to a particular law, then that law is immoral and unethical.

It would be a huge loss to the economy.

I think you missed a story today, where using the content industry's own methodology, ~12 jobs are created for every 1 lost to infringement. So, which is true, the methodology for both studies is correct (and therefore copyright is the loss to the economy), or both are incorrect (and therefore the content industry is lying again)?

Copyright vs Counterfeit
To me it seems that the new found constant need to always say copyright infringement alongside counterfeit only means that copyright doesn't have a solid leg to stand on and harms nobody. They need to create this link to actual harm that just isn't there. If there was actual harm, they would respond to the debunkings of their studies, do some good studies, or perhaps stop trying to conflate copyright infringement with everything evil under the sun.

Even if I was completely new to the idea of copyright, that is the impression I would get. The same idea behind whenever you hear a politician wanting to pass a law "for the children". You know it isn't actually needed and will only have bad side effects.

When all of the IP gang stops trying to conflate IP with actual counterfeit goods, then I will have a little respect for them.

Why is anyone surprised that a politician is parroting his patron's positions? What a politician says during the campaign bears little to no resemblance to what they do in office. Words are cheap, and often believed. Actions cost money, and the voters don't have enough.

Big businesses and the big unions give big money to their front men to conduct their business in Congress. Despite everything he said when running for office, Frankel is not a politician and is doing his master's bidding.

Re: Re: Re:

Are you sure you want to take the position that all laws are moral an ethical, and therefore?

The protests in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya were illegal. Helping an escaped slave was illegal. Leaking classified documents (even if they show gross negligence and mismanagement of a war) is illegal.

So, you'll say those are different situations. Ok.

The Boston Tea party was illegal.

Not paying the stamp tax was illegal - and that's what the Boston Tea party was about.

Why didn't people want to pay the stamp tax?

No representation in their government.

Can you really say that the government of this country represents the people, when all our elected seem to listen to are corporations and special interest groups? Both of the major political parties are saying 'more copyright good' where the evidence suggests the opposite.

So why should I pay the copyright tax if I'm not being represented in my government?

Find me even a single Senator or Congressman attempting to scale back or abolish copyright and I'll concede the point that there's someone with my interests trying to make a difference even if they get out voted.

I would not have shoplifted a CD or DVD because I would be depriving the store of the physical object. If I stole it, they would no longer have it.

The problem for you is that you'd still find more people that would say weed should be legal, than people saying ripping off music should be legal.

Of the people that rip off music, most know its illegal and wrong. They freely admit they do it because at the moment it's easy.

But they're not lobbying their congressmen to make it legal; they know that's ridiculous. And so should you.

None of you ever discuss the cost of production, human and monetary, because you're completely clueless about what it takes to create a professional entertainment product; one that is desired and appealing to many. There are large costs. You can keep pretending that's not the case, but the fact is you can't demonstrate otherwise on a mass level. All you guys ever come up with are incidental outliers.

The fact is you don't know what you're talking about. That's why no one listens to you, and your hare-brained ideas about things are ignored.

>

Pirating is easier than being a legitimate paying customer. If I want to take advantage of the state of the art in multi-media I basically have the choice of buying into a single vendor monopoly, pirating, or going to a lot of work.

The problem with option #1 is that it is still somewhat incomplete when compared to either option #2 or #3.

Option #3 is cool in many respects but is well... a bother. I can see why most people wouldn't do it. Plus you're still likely running afoul of the law anyways.

So that leaves piracy as the best option available even ignoring price. It's the easiest, least trouble free, and most complete option.

There are a number of nice infographics that capture all of this.

Now, if you actually knew anything about the music business, instead of being a raging asshat, you would have noticed that too.

Why are you asking for stats that should show the demise of an industry that is perfectly healthy and reaping record profits in the midst of all this "piracy" that someone, somewhere is claiming destroys this same industry.

See, you can't be continuously more profitable each year AND claim piracy is destroying the industry. One of those conditions has published numbers that show the profit is still there and not even necessarily getting smaller, the "piracy killing machine" is simply the monster in your closet when you go to bed at night and leave the door open.

Dude. When someone accurately states economics to you and you call him "seriously stupid," the only one that makes look stupid is you.

It's a *fact* that pricing is not based on fixed costs, but on marginal costs. Your desire to ignore that doesn't change it, nor does your desire to call someone who schools you in basic economics "seriously stupid" make you look knowledgeable. It makes you look clueless, though it explains why you're failing.

Heh. They do agree with me. That's why they're working on lawsuits.

Btw, where's the seizure appeals, Masnick, hmmm?

Will you admit you were wrong when the details come out? Of course not.

You seem to open your mouth an awful lot from a position of total ignorance, and even worse, accuse folks who know what they're talking about of being ignorant. You may know something about music, but you have demonstrated you have no knowledge of economics, business or the law.

Will you admit you were wrong? Of course not. But it's okay, because I know when I'm proven right, yet again, that you'll know how foolish you look.

By the way, my offer to help you for free goes away the day we publish the story about an appeal of a seizure. So, hurry up. You're about to lose out on a good chance to stop failing.

You mean, except when we discuss it. Is there a specific point you would like us to address on the subject? I'd offer some examples to get us started, but you've already rejected any I might bring up as "incidental outliers".

"The fact is you don't know what you're talking about. That's why no one listens to you, and your hare-brained ideas about things are ignored."

Mr. Franken admitted it changes the dynamic he is just ignorant of the fact that nobody knows where this could lead.

Further "piracy" have been in non-commercial circles for as long as there was copyrights and it didn't seem to do any harm.

Radio didn't destroy musicians and composers income, TV didn't destroy Hollywood, VHS didn't destroy TV and Hollywood.

There will be change and non-commercial piracy will be there and long after, there are no technologies or laws able to stop it and worst yet there are solutions to circumvent those laws using stringent copyright laws to achieve the same end result for free content that is sharable and freely legally distributable by anyone.

Also, the trend is downwards and you can't blame piracy alone when the game industry suffers from the same thing and is having record profits or when the movie industry is having also record profits, that just points to something else besides piracy that is driving CD sales down.

Have you ever considered that free legal alternatives are cutting down on spending? have you considered that people don't want to buy a CD that they will rip to a MP3, have you considered that others competitors(i.e. Jamendo) are taking market share from those sales?

Now even if that is true, what are you going to do about it?

There are no laws capable of stopping that and there are no technological solutions either at some point you people will need to come to terms with that simple fact.

(this goes for this subject and what was said about weed) greed is one of the most powerful forces known to man. it makes people do dumb things (raise prices through the roof/shoot someone for trying to rip you off). (onto the weed now) all i have to say about weed is that the same thing happened durring the prohibition, except weed does more good than harm, more than anyone can say for alcohol.

Come on Mike, spit it out...what "business model" are you referring to? Enlighten me...If you've got a specific idea that might actually work, let's hear it. I know you're not talking about 'Add-supported' or 'Free', are you!? Are you guys really still trying to keep that pipe dream alive?

Silicon Valley and the collective Internet syndicate willingly offering up free access to all digital content without authorization from the copyright holders does not qualify as a �new business model�, there's actually a name for that and it's called "copyright infringement".
