I found these links below to an interesting interview and some supporting comments from Internet publisher Tim O’Reilly about why he opposes SOPA from his perspective in the industry. You might know O’Reilly as being one of the biggest publishers of tech manuals around, and he has a lot of really spot-on ideas, including the idea that piracy isn’t so much a “problem” as a sign of market failure.
Really good reads, especially if you’re like me and find yourself growing more and more curious about this potential Internet blackout that many sites are proposing on Wednesday to protest SOPA and PIPA…
