Well, "any US company" can't coordinate well enough with "any other US company" to bribe the Congress and fix it, therefore they fall prey to the ones that can coordinate to maintain the status quo.

True. I guess the only recourse is to revolt, roll out the guillotine, and solve the RIAA/MPAA problem the old fashioned way.

If you can organize a revolt, it means you can coordinate enough to at least try and fix the problem without (much) bloodshed.

That is why they don't have takedown laws like this in Europe, because you can't just bribe the government.
