“It’s a watershed event, what happened,” Dodd admitted, noting that opponents’ “ability to organize and communicate directly with consumers” was a game-changing phenomenon that he hadn’t seen in more than three decades in public office.” — MPAA President and former U.S. Senator Chris Dodd’s reaction to last week’s SOPA/PIPA protests, revealing that he really doesn’t understand how people use the internet, even as he’s cheerleading for legislation that would affect how people use the internet. It reminds me of videotaping my grandfather in the mid-80’s, and he asked me to move a bit closer. I zoomed in with the camera, and said “there, I’m closer!” and he just shook his head in wonder at the amazing machine.
