Which Bill is more Dangerous — ‘Internet “piracy”‘ —- or ‘Defense Authorization’?

Cenk Uygur of the Young Turks discusses two of the worst pieces of legislation before Congress with Glenn Greenwald.

They are the so-called “Stop Online Piracy Act” (SOPA), on the one hand, which holds hosts responsible for any copyright infringement by anyone on their site. And the other is the provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act that explicitly allow US military personnel to arrest Americans and others anywhere in the world and hold them in detention indefinitely without trial.

Cenk wouldn’t have to have this conversation if the majority of the Congress carried about our civil liberties.
