SOPA and PIPA have been the buzzwords as of late due to many internet users and business owners’ fear that the bills will allow for censorship and basically disuse of the internet. Recently, a video by Mike Mozart speaks about a case that involves a UK citizen being extradited to the U.S. to face copyright infringement charges.

According to Mozart:

“UK student Richard O’Dwyer is being extradited to the United States to face USA courts for just LINKING to copyrighted material on his webpage TVShack.net The USA is using an extradition treaty intended to be used for terrorist to bring England resident Richard O’Dwyer to America to be imprisoned for copyright infringement for what he did on his TVShack.net site in spite of the fact that he broke no UK / England Laws and has never been to the USA.

The famed billionaire Alki David has publicly announced that he will cover ALL of Richard O’Dwyer’s legal costs in the USA once he is brought here to stand trial.

MPAA Head former US Senator Chris Dodd supports the imprisonment of world citizens in the USA for copyright infringement and has called Anti-SOPA and PIPA pundits “dangerous”.

This video continues to expose how the large media companies actually created the phenomenon of “online piracy” to craft laws to take over the world wide internet and media portals, and How big media promoted sites like Rapidshare and Megaupload.”

You can view the video on YouTube or below the post. You can also learn more about the issue by going to the Evidence Blog, O’Dwyer’s mother’s diary blog and her Twitter. To read more about this story, click here.
