Protect IP Bill (E-Parasite)...is our Government getting more & more stupid?

I don't usually become indignant when I hear reports like this, because most of the time I don't approve of the greed and selfishness that makes people think they're entitled to leech copyrighted products at will with impunity, but this is pretty bullshit. Not only are we forced to pay exorbitant fees to ISPs for access to the internet, which is a nebulous thing that nobody should rightfully be able to "own," but now we're being told what we can and can't do with a service after we've paid for it. Notice that that report mentioned nothing about suspending or terminating service for customers who violate copyright laws. They're going to keep charging and just play God with connection speeds and webpage access, so in effect violators will be proportionally paying more and more for less actual service rendered.

I'm not in disagreement about protecting copyright and I recognize that it must and will be done, but this is definitely not the right way to go about doing it.
 
The thing is why do we need the RIAA and MPAA? The internet has become a please were people can advertise themselves and make money with out a middleman or label,who pretty much takes all the profits, these copyright law don't protect the creator they protect the copyright owners.
 
Yes, and business laws are designed to protect the interests of the people with the money. Why is that surprising?
