Ieyasu Tokugawa Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 [quote name='Legend Zero' timestamp='1327089254' post='5772758'] Don't blame the US for it, blame the creators of Megaupload/video for being bad people. I heard many Republicans have been swayed to vote against the bills, due to the "influence" of major corporations. *coughgoogle* The law should be that each company has a right to take anything (name,product,movies,anime,ect) off a website without permission or due process if they want. This way it not only creates positions in certain companies that wish to enforce it, but allows others that enjoy the free advertising to leave it be. [/quote] I would figure there would be some set of guidelines. Like if the website isn't giving anything (or showing in the case of a movie/show) then it's immune.

bury the year Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Now that just sounds paranoid to me. Smith is redrafting it, "hopefully" without as many restrictive measures in wake of all the protest. Of course, I'm just being optimistic, but the article you linked just is stirring sh!t.

Uchiha Sasuke XII Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I have to say, there is only a slight chance of SOPA passing, so there shouldn't be any danger to anyone. Then again, if it does pass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THROWDOWN Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 [i]"I doubt the blackout strategy will work again."[/i] Implying it worked in the first place. [color=#222222]Anyway, the whole law is retarded. According to what I watched of Legend Zero's video it basically means that if you even have a whiff of what could be an illegal site on you, through search engine or otherwise, they can prosecute you. .-.

Flame Dragon Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 I actually saw this a couple hours ago. Got to love how they are strong arming this with a bill called "Protecting Children From Internet Pornographers". Make it seem like you not supporting it makes you a horrible person.
