Your congress, you know the one that doesn't seem to be able to do much about the critical problems facing the average American, lobbied effectively by large copyright holders proposes to place unreasonable burdens on internet companies to monitor the internet for copyright violations and to deny US citizens access to sites that allegedly violate copyrights by blocking IPs. These bills are wrong headed, heavy handed, and simply won't work in Common Sense's view. They should be vigorously opposed. Write your congressman to oppose SOPA and PIPA.
