The internet was on purpose set-up to stimulate creativity. What a lot of laws that are proposed now want to do is to change these fundamental design decisions. Read some of Lawrence Lessig's books and you will see this argument described in a good way.

Wikipedia have for example said that SOPA and PIPA would have made it impossible to create Wikipedia. And I think that is true.
