Congress has been staunch in pushing forth a cyber piracy bill. Hit the jump to see why President Obama will veto it.
The Obama administration wants to secure our internet. However, they do not want us to lose our internet freedoms.
The Obama administration raised concerns Saturday about efforts in Congress that it said would undermine ‘the dynamic, innovative global Internet’.
White House officials urged lawmakers to approve measures this year that balance the need to fight piracy and counterfeiting against an open Internet.
They said in a blog post that it would not support pending legislation that ‘reduces freedom of expression, increases cybersecurity risk’ or undermines the global Internet, cautioning the measure could discourage innovation and startup businesses.
