  Russian Hack Nonsense

  on Democratic National Committee's Lawsuit Against Russians, Wikileaks And Various Trump Associates Full Of Legally Nutty Arguments
  "there's little doubt at this point that the Russians were behind the hack and leak of the documents, and that Wikileaks published them" Really? This Russian hack accusation is utter nonsense and has been from the beginning. With this one sentence, You have lost all your credibility

  India is Right

  on India Says: 'There Is No Direct Correlation Between IP And Innovation'
  The US is trying to use IP policy in trade agreements to monopolize innovation and stifle it in developing nations. But that IP policy acts to stifle innovation in the US, as well.

  Corruption

  on Chris Dodd Suggests Backroom Negotiations On New SOPA Are Well Underway
  Dodd is essentially saying that Obama is staying bought. And that the DoJ moves against MegaUpload, intransigence on ACTA, moves at the FBI, revival talk about SOPA is the administration trying to make up for their failure to do what they had been paid to do.

  The Internet is a Naturally Collaborative Environment

  on Chris Dodd: The Internet Developed Because Of Strict Copyright Enforcement
  I cannot think of a more naturally collaborative environment than the Internet. Restricting that collaborative nature by an overly strict imposition of artificial monopolies on words, sounds and images is anathema.
  
  Chris Dodd and Lamar Smith have made themselves two of the most hated men in America by their attempts to restrict Internet freedoms. The sooner that fact sinks in for them, the better for all.

  Sue Armovore & Paper Street Cash

  on Key Techdirt SOPA/PIPA Post Censored By Bogus DMCA Takedown Notice
  And use the logic of the RIAA in doing so. For the time that your post was affected by the take down, assume that Google would have sent a user to your page if any word or words on the page was a match for any Google query (Bing too, if that was also affected).
  
  Then assume that any visitor to your page would have clicked on every ad and would be following you on Facebook, Twitter, etc. Also assume the good will of every visitor.
  
  Then sue for loss of revenue, growth and good will.
