GOP-E trying to shut down Conservative news forums and compiler sites like Drudge.
Traitorous legislation aimed at destroying the First Amendment! Hell cannot be made hot enough for the committee members who promote this legislation.
Of course the congress scum are looking at this. There is nothing thieves and tyrants like less than sunshine being focused on their activities.
bttt
The best thing you can do is to never ever ever vote for a dim even if he’s better than the pubbie. It is never the single dem which is the problem, it is always the majority each single dem added to.
So they are willing to destroy the First Amendment in the name of copyright law and $$$$? Tyrants.
Look at this link, many more like it and this is just copyright lock up preventing the access of “orphaned titles” and the like to the owners discretion
451...
And the giveaways to Big Pharma are purely a crime and a clear conspiracy...
Sickening...

We have got to get these clowns out of office.
not sure how that would work. I mean there’s probably thousands of other sites out there like Huffington Post, Democrat Underground. Would all really have to cease to exist?
What about someone on FaceBook or LinkedIn posting links, would that then be illegal as well?
Well no one will go to the sites that Drudge links to. No more seeing their ads or giving them hits.
Since the web sites that Drudge links to only increase the traffic to originating sites, the only point for this is to censor the information we receive and benefit the clique of authoritarian, anti freedom and anti democratic rulers we suffer under. The leftist dictators control the herd.
Wouldn’t they be hurting themselves? Such sites direct traffic to them.
If the websites of the copyright owners weren’t linked by sites like Druge, FR, etc, they’d never get any clicks. Don’t they sell their ads by clicks?
Most of the posts on Democrat Underground are profanity so they’ll probably be OK. </s
Following.
yep-
Breitbart, Limbaugh- who else is next?
let’s ask the jebster!
The issue is First Amendment freedom of . . . the press. Combined withfreedom of the press means freedom of any technical means of communication, and the unregulated spending of private money on it.
- Article 1 Section 8.:
- The Congress shall have power . . . To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries . . .
combined with the prohibition of an established religion means that if The New York Times has freedom of the press then I am entitled to freed of the press - freedom to spend any sum I wish on paper, ink, and printing presses. Yes, or on Internet bandwidth and a web site to make my views accessible worldwide, that being technically practicable for everyone.
- Article 1 Section 9:
- No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States . . .
I recognize, of course, that others will spend a thousand dollars for each dollar I will spend - but journalism spends millions for each dollar I will spend, and they are not anointed as priests of objectivity, any more than I am.
Most internet ‘news’ sites will be willing to give copyright permission for Drudge, FR and others to link to their sites. It drives traffic to them.
This development is a non-starter.
