Internet Censorship Begins?

Internet Censorship Begins?

copywrite.org

Due to the recent proposed changes to the Internet Data Fair Usage Mandate to ISP Policies &
Regulations 2007 act (r11734) brought into effect by the International Consortium of Global Data
Infastructures starting from the 1st of next month we may have to limit your viewing time to 30
minutes per 24 hour period.
We are firmly in belief this is a mockery of our human rights and is a ridiculous act
that we must FIGHT TO NOT HAVE PASSED! If this act is passed it will mean legally
we cannot allow you to stream movies for more then 30 minutes per day or face
termination of our servers

This message recently popped up on the opening page of several streaming video sites. I'm not sure if this is a joke or not. However, with the recent crack downs of the government I personally am afraid. I've been a long time lurker here but I signed up just to post this story and see what the ATS community thinks. I'm pretty angry that they want to limit the amount of video we can watch. I haven't seen anyone talk about this yet on here, so now I leave it up to you good people of ATS.

I've linked to the law as the message is being displayed on adult and streaming movie sites which I'm not sure I can link too.

I skimmed it, because Legalese gives me a power headache, so I might've missed it, but I'm not seeing anything that would entail needing to limit viewers to half an hour. Maybe if the sites involved are engaging in copyright infringement, they have interpreted this as meaning that they can legally provide the content to users in a sort of demo way?

It means nothing unless it suddenly gets resurrected.

From what I've read, it was presented in 2007 and has since been sent to a subcommittee in the House and to date has not gone anywhere.

H.R.1201
Title: Freedom and Innovation Revitalizing U.S. Entrepreneurship Act of 2007

Latest Major Action: 3/19/2007 Referred to House subcommittee. Status: Referred to the Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property.

But would it even mean what the OP says it would mean? I'm not seeing it anywhere.

The government or tptb must be laying off a lot of agents
and won't be able to keep up with the disinformation 24/7 like
they have. It will be like a breath of fresh air.

Ed: So this wasn't meant for us, this is covered word to the agents.
Sorry to see you go guys its been not nice to have you around.

There must be a dis info news room as all scientific news is handled
through censors.

ED:

A BILL To amend title 17, United States Code, to promote innovation, to encourage the introduction of new technology, to enhance library preservation efforts, and to protect the fair use rights of consumers, and for other purposes.

Its a fair use protection bill.
What censorship.
However dis info will continue with more pro alien ufo liars on youtube
and zero Tesla ufo truthers as usual.
They want to protect the pro alien fair users.

I seen a few posts at YouTube not go in right away.
I figure they are a tool of the Illuminati now.
Their agents are stopping information now besides dishing out
info we can't use because its cheaper to keep us in the dark.
ED: and fair use of dis info is a bad thing
