I was only able to watch about a minute before I started bleeding from my eyeballs, but here is my response:

He's full of shit.





Here is my more detailed reponse: Yes, media outlets have sued people who uploaded copyrighted material. But - you know what? - that's already covered by existing law. SOPA isn't about suing end-users, it's about controlling and blocking the distribution websites. It's about blocking anyone in the USA from accessing The Pirate Bay and Rapidshare.

Also, his implied claims about how the media outlets supposedly provided bittorrent software to people so that they could then sue them for using it is rubbish.

Also, also, he's really annoying.
