On: What everyone in the SOPA debate is missing: IP is not a fundamental right

[tshaddox]

I'm not sure I can agree with everything you're saying. Was the Constitution written with the expectation that later generations would consider it "deceptively sophisticated" and that only "constitutional lawyers" should be able to make sense of it? Was it purposefully written so that later constitutional lawyers could interpret it in new ways that seem counter-intuitive to everyone else? I don't think so.

Of course not. But that's what's happened. And as a result, the barrier to entry in knowing the true meaning is now quite high.

I'm not placing a vote of approval of this reality; just stating that it exists. It aggravates me too.

Then where did the supposed complexity come from?

I do.
