Dewy Web: 12/7 - What's Wrong with SOPA? ... which could limit the Internet a lot, Nearly 400 web internet domain names have been seized thus far


"12/7 - What's Wrong with SOPA?" online video conversation on December 7, 2011, and which is accessible here - http://cyberlaw.stanford.edu/node/6770 ... Stanford Law - Center for Internet and Society ... check it out ... SOPA could limit the internet a lot ...

... am adding to the Law School at World University and School -


(I think this conversation may become archived and become freely accessible, which it has been ...)

Is a SOPA compromise is emerging? .... http://futureoftheinternet.org/sopa-compromise ... due to 'What's Wrong with SOPA' ...

In planning for 50-100 online, interactive, free, accredited law schools in 50-100 countries/nation states, WUaS wants, too, to help facilitate the development of international, internet law, especially Creative Commons' law ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University_Law_School ... and http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Creative_Commons_Law ... and much more (e.g. Maritime Law?) ... I hope these will be big law schools employing a big faculty, hired significantly from Stanford, Harvard and Yale, and these other great universities ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Courses#University_course_listings.

Nearly 400 web internet domain names have been seized thus far by the U.S. so far, mostly Counterfeiting-related by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations group and the FBI's Washington field office. Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/11/28/fbi-seizes-150-websites-in-cyber-monday-counterfeit-crackdown, which is a little scary for free speech, but is also a somewhat small number - http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/11/28/fbi-seizes-150-websites-in-cyber-monday-counterfeit-crackdown/ ...

will add to http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Internet_Studies and perhaps the WU law school.

SOPA is a little scary for 1st amendment reasons ...

(will look to add here ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Internet_Studies)
