Couldn't happen to a better guy. He spoke out against SOPA/PIPA during debate #417 saying that copyright and patent laws are good enough and that current protections allow rights holders to sue, then he goes and uses Eye of the Tiger without permission, and the man who wrote that song doesn't like that and is suing.

Irony: quite delicious.
