I saw a commercial for this travesty on TV. It said several times "piracy is stealing". Many of the gullible are going to believe this and get behind it I fear. If they can't even differentiate the difference between copyright infringement and theft then they should just drop this immediately.
I have seen several messages in movie theaters with this same mistake being promoted: "You wouldn't steal a car" and crap like that. Many people fall for this because they can't think for themselves.
