Is not the public interest served with the free and open exchange of ideas and the risk that some people might get away with a few mp3s they may or may not have paid for in the same way that we have justice system that says it is better for a guilty person to avoid punishment than to convict an innocent?

There's my argument. better for the common people to not be censored. Now what's yours for a law that will almost certainly be abused based on the number of documented DMCA abuses that have not only happened but gone unpunished?
I dont see how policing the piracy of music,literature, film and trademarks, prevents the common people to not be censored.
