The new copyright laws that are being introduced to some countries.For those of you who dont know it is a highly controversial new set of laws to do with copyright infringement on the internet.Some people believe it is excluding the right to free speech,personally i find that preposterous.People who download free music,games and movies are being affected.Of course having free things is great but do you think creators dont deserve credit towards their work?I dont know what you think so tell us in the comments below,even if you dont know what im talking about tell us your opnions on free content download

Credit matters when you are applying for a job or being considered for some kind of work. We must do our work and put love and interest to the job or work we are assigned to. Passion and effort receives good credit and emphasizes your skill, ability, and knowledge. Creators deserves credit, it"s not easy to create music, games and movies. It takes time and effort.

There will have to be a happy medium. The target was sites like youtube. So many people go online and sing songs they don't own the copy rights to. In the even that someone uploads copyrighted information, that whole site would be taken down, if sopa/acta would pass. The picture you have of Spam could even cause a social site to get shut down.
This happened very quickly after OWS started and there were videos of police brutality shown all over the net. Those in power would love to be able to shut down the sites informing people of what is really going on, under the guise of copyright infringement.
I feel the way Michael Moore feels about copyright law and intellectual property.
