The U.S. Congress is debating a bill that could help millions of artists around the world. If passed, the bill would allow the government to target and shut down “internet sites dedicated to infringing activities” which are “primarily designed” to access unauthorized copyrighted material. Tell your representatives to vote YES to the Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (COICA).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
WHAT IS THIS BILL ABOUT?<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
1.\u00a0\u00a0 Check out this short video<\/a><\/strong> by independent filmmaker Ellen Seidler as she talks about how websites that are illegally hosting her movie are profiting. Yet, she is losing money. This bill will help shut down websites like these.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
2.\u00a0\u00a0 The bill will not target minor violations of copyright.<\/strong> It will target “internet sites dedicated to infringing activities” that are “primarily designed” to offer or provide access to copyrighted material “without the authorization of the copyright owner.”<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
3.\u00a0\u00a0 The Attorney General<\/strong> will be able to request a court order to suspend the domain names of U.S.-based infringing websites. For non-U.S.-based websites, the Attorney General will be able to request a court order to require the ISPs to block the website. Credit card companies and networks providing ads to these sites will also suspend all activity with the infringing sites.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
4.\u00a0\u00a0 A list of all the domain names<\/strong> that are found to be infringing copyright protected content will be posted on a “publicly available Internet site, together with other relevant information, in order to inform the public.”<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
