If we do nothing, people like Tenenbaum—people just out of college like us in a few years—will continue to be fined amounts such as his of $675,000. If we do nothing, since congress is working to pass this SOPA bill as we speak, it may pass. If these laws didn’t exist and we will continue to have file sharing opportunities, download our music conveniently building our own lifelong music collections (no DRM's), which we could share with the rest of society as we please, and at the same time help support the music industry sales (japan's music sales dropped with enforcement of anti-piracy laws) without identified pirates ourselves.
Remove DRM's.
Prevent SOPA.
