Guys, I'm no fan of piracy in any measure. In fact, I actually preach pretty strongly against it. However, I also don't think the federal government has any authority to do what they're doing. The job of policing copyright is up to the corporations, not the federal government. Now if this was Baen or Warner Brothers or someone else shutting down those sites, I wouldn't say anything. But when the Fed steps into an area outside their jurisdiction, then I complain.
And before you say it, my reasonings are simple. The more we allow government to go where they're not supposed to, the more they'll take from us until there's nothing left to take. Government is already overstepping its bounds now. Allowing it more power is just suicide. Now since this discussion is likely to quickly devolve into political mudslinging, I'll leave my comments at that.
