You could argue that this law may protect some intellectual works from being completely ripped off, but there were already mechanisms in place to prevent stuff like that (or do you really think that until now literature was rife with copyright abuse that needs to be reigned in?). This law will actively prevent lots of new works through bureaucratic red tape. And for all those cheering at our liberties being stripped away, tell me, if you have to submit your entire manuscript to the government before publishing, what's to prevent the government refusing to publish any literature that may be critical of government? If you people think that the government will protect peoples freedom of speech or their human rights then I've got a nice beach front property on the surface of the sun you might be interested in.
America has a STATUE OF LIBERTY yet most Americans (and Australians, and people in general) cheer when their liberties are destroyed by government. The dictionary definition of liberty is: "freedom from arbitrary or despotic government or control" and "freedom from control, interference, obligation, restriction, hampering conditions, etc.; power or right of doing, thinking, speaking, etc., according to choice". These laws don't respect and protect liberty, they actively piss all over it and you dipshits have your heads raised to the sky with your mouths open drinking all this 'good' golden rain.
