There are some conservatives who are on the wrong side of the freedom of the internet (those trying to shut down file sharing etc.)

However, I have been more and more surprised just how many conservatives ARE on the right side.

Honestly, this seems to be coming mostly from the left.

I am a supporter and upholder of intellectual property rights. Those who create and distribute content should be able to profit from their efforts. That is fair and it encourages creativity. I understand there are issues to debate, but there are some bottom lines here.

There were people in my software company who were fired for sharing other company's properties out over the Internet, and rightly so.

No real conservative would advocate a "right" to "share" something that doesn't belong to them in the first place.

"Sharing" something that you don't own is commonly known as "fencing stolen property", and receiving it, well, the definition is obvious. ;)
