Eight US lawmakers have withdrawn
their support for anti-piracy laws, after
"blackout" protests on thousands of
internet sites.
Two of the bill's co-sponsors,
Marco Rubio from Florida and Roy Blunt
from Missouri, are among those
backing away.

Online encyclopedia Wikipedia and
blog service WordPress are among
the highest profile sites to block
their content.
The Motion Picture Association of
America (MPAA) has branded the
protests as "irresponsible" and
a "stunt".
While this blog calls MPAA ,
"dirty profiteers" who take of all
the worlds copyrights for them selfs
while many artists in China or Indian
and other places don't get a dime
from MPAA !
What makes one org think they can
regulate the worlds online
freedom ?
If MPAA would share the rights
fairly with Asian and African
and other parts of the world
there would be no piracy at all !
This as the sum divided between
individuals seeing films in the
entire world is so hugh, that any
films rights would be some cents
instead of tens of dollars now,
per person.
So for fairness sake
thanks to the US Senators
for not falling into this
trap by MPAA.
