by definition they can't because their a pirate site.

The 1st amendment issue is ALL i care about, the abuse of this law (because the process is wishy washy grey area that so fucking bad, it can "accidentally" be abused) is all i care about.

Why do i comment now, because that what a comment period is for dumb ass.





Just because it won't stop the pirates who will use dirty tricks to bypass the filters doesn't mean it will have no effect on the INNOCENT but WRONGFULLY accused sites that will be caught in the drag net.

Those innocent sites will suffer all the penalty but have no "solution" to get around the problem because again by DEFINITION they are innocent.

Again that why i want an abuse it and lose it clause in the law, so the innocent sites at least have a recovery option (they can sell the newly public domain content to recoup there losses) if the copyright holder tries to nickel and dime them on damages.
