What To Tell Your Kids About Online Piracy
This past Wednesday, Wikipedia and many other online communities decided to blackout their websites for as long as 24 hours in protest of the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and Protect IP Act (PIPA). These two pieces of U.S. legislation are intended to stop the distribution of pirated music, movies and television shows online. At the moment, due to the protest and concerns voiced by numerous organizations, it currently appears support for these two bills is waning.
Despite your stance on these two bills, one thing is clear: the music, movie, and television industries have spent a lot of time and money to address piracy. Stronger actions will be taken against those who engage in producing and consuming pirated material in some form. There are important shifts going on that we all need to aware of so we are ready for them and can guide kids accordingly.
