The MPA has issued awards in recognition of anti-piracy work, including to lawmakers who could push a site-blocking bill over the line.

Before the Oscars are handed out early March, the Motion Picture Association (MPA) has announced its own annual awards. Wicked director Jon Chu is a proud recipient, but the bulk of the accolades go to lawmakers and the U.S. Government’s IPR Center, who helped to combat online piracy. Perhaps not coincidentally, those lawmakers could help to push a pirate site blocking bill over the line.

WTF!

This is like getting an award for reminding the teacher to assign the class homework so reliably.
