@buermann @DeanBaker13 from the piece: “I have been told very confidently by people who know the Internet much better than me that this change would either mean nothing to the huge sites (they would just hire more lawyers) and also that it would force them to adopt a subscription model where people had to pay to use their sites.”i have a guess who “people” is there…

@interfluidity @DeanBaker13 Would love to see them demand subscriptions and share the fate of the news industry they destroyed.
