A little video explaining SOPA and PIPA FROM Clay Shirky.

SOPA and PIPA may be temporarily stopped, but we know from history that they will be back. It is important to know and understand what they can do and remain vigilant in preventing Congress from passing any future versions of SOPA and PIPA.
