I know there is a lot of HN activity on this, today.
My reason for yet one more link: This is a link I'm sharing with my friends and family who are less technical and/or less informed on the topic.
techdirt's writing here, and consistently, has been eloquent and elucidating. And their linking lets the reader quickly and conveniently dig as far into details and background as they might desire.
I've been devoting a significant portion of my time in recent weeks and today to offering such information to my contacts who might be concerned but have remained largely uninformed. I hope we all can devote some personal time and attention to doing so, today and in the coming weeks (for this isn't over, and we need a bulwark of public education to slow down both this specific legislative initiative and the future ones that are surely coming).
