Perhaps that last part is wrapped in some hyperbole, but then again, after reading portions of the updated bill, as well as some of the reactions to it, it’s pretty clear that, if passed, the American public could soon be using a very different version of the Internet than what we’re used to. The sad thing is, besides a small section of informed reactions to the bill, very few in the American public seem to know and/or care about the implications of PROTECT-IP, which, thanks to input from House of Representatives, now goes by the unfortunately-named E-PARASITE Act.

Canadian and American TourLast Updated on Friday, 28 October 2011 03:24 Written by a2e Friday, 28 October 2011 03:24 I had an absolutely wonderful time at Bagham Barn yesterday. I talked to so many people, and signed so many books! All in all, a perfect Miller’s event. The Barn itself is a beautiful and very interesting place that I very much recommend you visit if you’re in the area.
