I read the comments on the petition. So, if people aren't allowed to post content they don't own, innovation will die?

anyone who thinks that is a pirate or piracy supporter. The more money you make creating = the more creation.
This argument is falling into two camps. those who think they can't be hurt from piracy or benefiting from it and those who are getting hurt by it. If I plug into Vendzilla's webcam sites and download the live content for free, he'll be calling in this law faster than I can say troll.
If I plug into any of the supporters sites or wares and use it for free, they are all over me.
Porn existed long before the Internet. It was available in most civilised countries and withing reason pretty well uncensored. In certain places there was a limit. Could still produce, sell and buy magazines like Mayfair, Playboy etc and make money.
The "freedom" slant is "Freedom for me to steal what you have and benefit from it."
Make plans, this law will pass and all the bleating in the world won't stop it. It will need the Supreme Court to do that.
