The House Blacklist Bill was introduced as expected yesterday — but with only a handful of sponsors.
Now that it’s been introduced, will you ask your lawmakers to VOTE AGAINST the House version of the Blacklist Bill?
The bad news: The bill is a nightmare.
The rumors were true. The new Blacklist Bill could effectively destroy YouTube, Twitter, and other sites that rely on user-generated content by making the sites’ owners legally responsible for content their users post.
It could shut down music storage lockers and other cloud-based products. And it also includes provisions that would make it a felony to stream unlicensed content — including cover band performances, karaoke videos, video game play-throughs, and more.
