This is off topic, sorry chronosek

I think it can honestly be taken that way, as well as being taken as "anti-capitalist movement" like those who opposed SOPA/PIPA. I don't think its wrong to view either which way. However, Zeitgeist and the Venus Project are really strong on making sustainability for our future. That's what important to me. Knowing that future generations will continue to have the things we have. Our resources will run out period. It doesn't matter if we cut back, we can only dig so deep and use up whats there. It doesn't grow on trees and we can't replant it. Once its gone, its gone. Whether our governments around the world really take a serious step towards this, or we fight for it ourselves; I'm for that. I'd rather work the rest of my life building a future others in next 100 years can live in. Then just use everything up and say "suckers."
I feel like there is a lot that can be said about this, the government, corruption, everything really.
Sort of back on topic. I don't think its wrong that company's want what they are legally entitled too. If I was an artist with my work being put out all over the place I would want it stopped too. Like McDirty said, SOPA/PIPA and even ACTA stops a lot of innovation. ACTA even goes too deep into your own privacy's rights and to me makes it almost like your freedom of speech is gone (at least as in depth as that video chronosek posted). What happened to MU was the right way to go about it, and how it should be dealt with. Making up all these new agreements within our governments is the wrong way to do.
