Hey, like seeing my art online? Like checking out art, seeing videos on youtube, or basically enjoying the creative bounty that the internet's unleashed?

The Orphan Works Bill is going to kill all that.

What the Orphan Works bill says is that, unless you've paid to register the copyright for your work on (as yet undefined) directories, your work no longer belongs to you. Your snapshots, your drawings, your songs, can all be used by big corporations without compensation or consent. What it'll do is force creative professionals to me to yank our work offline, for fear that it will be stolen. We won't be able to let fans post our work (this makes it eligible for orphaning). We won't be able to promote ourselves. It will ruin many careers.

Don't want this to happen?
