Yes, it is true that the bill died in Congress about two years ago and hasn’t been brought back. I haven’t covered it in the past on the Copyright 2.0 Show because the show started after the last time it was actually before Congress.

It really is kind of silly that there is such a big stink made about it now. I don’t understand it but I guess it is the nature of the Web.

Trust me though, if it does come before Congress, you will read all about it on PlagiarismToday…
