> That, to me, seems a much worse intrusion on actual property rights than any "intellectual property" defense could justify.
We already raid houses in relation to fraud, embezzlement, and other crimes based around intellectual values.
Would I support raiding a house for piracy? I don't think anyone's proposing raiding houses for casual downloaders. If they were an organized piracy network ALA TPB, who have inflicted massive amounts of damage on authors, artists, game makers, and app developers, big and small, then as a writer, a software maker, and an ethical human being I'd certainly support that.
This bill is a good start.
