Even though protecting copyright is a correct concept, however, due to the nature of digital media, people yet to find a way to preserve both copyright and internet freedom.
From my point of view of “Internet Freedom vs. Piracy and Law”, my thought is that the law was created to serve a correct purpose. However, the execution of the law was poorly plan out. And some of the anti-piracy law might affect internet users. For example, the shut down of Megaupload had affected many paid members of the site who uses the site for legal sharing purposes. With the internet privacy and freedom gone, what is left with our democracy?
Absolutely! Shut down of Megaupload was a huge happening and impact for some people! The internet, or I would say IT technology had grown too quickly which the countries having trouble controlling. I understand it is important to restrict the information and protect the privacy, but I think the government should think of the freedom of users as well. I do agree with your ideas.
