Just a quick post here to say that I do not support SOPA or Protect IP. Actually I am quite against them. Go and find other explanations, but know that I am a computer guy first and foremost. This system seems to break the Internet as easily as a bull turning around in the proverbial china shop... or taking a fly out with a tactical nuke... Effective, but what about the collateral damage?
So go read about the potential threat of to the DNS and the TCP/IP protocol. Please send a letter or something... please...
But, I need you guys understand that I am against SOPA/PIPA, and most other ways that the Internet can be slowed by legislation and legal red tape.
Why? Do I not want my work, MOLLY (available soon) to be pirated? Well, no, I'd rather that everybody pay me to look at and own a piece of my work. Its what I do for a living, after all. But I know that if someone wants my stuff, and they are cleaver enough to get it, I can't stop them.
The pirates will always be there. They will always take what they can. That is a given. But, caught in the cross fire, between the pirates and me, are you guys... people who will buy my stuff. I don't want to make the action of getting a copy of my work a struggle for you.
I will be judicious with my work, my software, to make sure that grabbing one of my works will be the easiest thing in the world. That is my promise to you!
