Could be vested interest. They may be budding film producers or musicians.
Unfortunately, many people see government as a good thing and if a government says it’s a good action, then it is.
Yeah,it was a musician. They don’t realize it will make it more difficult for unsigned artists. Yeah,it seems this congress this year has been full of stupid people.
Almost certainly, that and soft-headed folk who have bought into the rhetoric of people with vested interests and don't understand how the internet or a market economy actually works.
They may be budding film producers or musicians.
Not likely. Most of the new generation have actually embraced the internet as a way of breaking into the market and regard "piracy" as their fans sampling their work which they will later buy or support in other ways. The folks with vested interests are established studios and publishers (usually not the artists themselves) who expect the government to prop up their business model. Unfortunately the law of supply and demand naturally drives the price of any good which can be produced in arbitrary supply at zero marginal cost to zero, and digital text, images, video, . . . are goods of that nature. The budding film producers, musicians, artists, authors, . . . who grew up with the internet are adapting and finding business models that work (the usual one is abbreviated CwF + RtB "connect with fans plus reason to buy", though merchandizing and sale of advertising also work).
