Facebook, Twitter, and Google Ask Hollywood to Stop Trying to Revive SOPA


A recent effort to crack down on pirating sites that bears a striking resemblance to SOPA, a controversial anti piracy bill shot down in 2012, has drawn backlash from major tech companies Facebook, Google, Twitter, Tumblr, and Yahoo. Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), a collective of six major Hollywood studios, previously filed an injunction that would require hosting sites to stop links to MovieTube, an online streaming site, and affiliated sites. - Kari Paul, MOTHERBOARD [via/web:http://streaming-tv.us]
