Well obviously the primary motivation will be financial, there's certainly a lot of money being paid to push it through into law, but that doesn't mean the government won't be fully aware of the fringe benefits that go along with it. Obamma(?)'s government already disproved the entertainment industry's claims about financial loss through piracy, so you can obviously discount that as a motive.
