- They're terrified of the popular uprising against their censorship legislation.
So in a remarkably glib post, the Chamber writes:
saw the House bill, they started calling it the “New Internet Blacklist Bill.” Blacklist?
That sounds pretty bad. But before we get carried away, let’s take a look at the
actual language of the actual legislation. Can YOU find a blacklist? No? Can you
find a list of ANY kind? No?"(end qoute)
- We've got to give them credit: In their wisdom the authors of the Internet
Blacklist Bill refrained from inserting the terms 'Blacklist,' 'censorship,' or
'Great Firewall Of China' into the text of their legislation. - As drafted, the legislation would grant the government and private parties
unprecedented power to interfere with the Internet's domain name system
(DNS). The government would be able to force ISPs and search engines to
redirect or dump users' attempts to reach certain websites' URLs.
further -- undermining other sites' abilities to continue to operate by choking off
their access to financial resources.
UPDATE:
The bottom line is that if it passes and becomes law, the new act would
give the government and copyright holders a giant stick — if not an
automatic weapon — with which to pursue websites and services they
believe are infringing on their content. With little or no requirement for
a court hearing, they could remove websites from the internet and shut
down their ability to be found by search engines or to process
payments from users. DMCA takedown notices would effectively be
replaced by this nuclear option, and innocent websites would have to
fight to prove that they deserved to be restored to the internet — a
reversal of the traditional American judicial approach of being assumed
innocent until proven guilty — at which point any business they had
would be destroyed.
