._. so all my fav sites will be blocked on google, an our ISP's will block the url's I believe ._. ... sites like facebook/google even forum sites would be held responsible for urls that the members post.. such as if I linked one of you to a movie sharing site. Pretty much its censorship at its finest! 

edit: lmfao I get ready to post come back an u guys beat me to it!

Whenever the government says they're going to "protect us", watch out. 'cause they're just gonna take away another one of our freedoms.

Btw, the bill will cost $27 million to pass, for the next 4 years. Taxes are gonna be raised a looooooot. Just to pass SOPA and PIPA.

this shit is stupid, screw the gov't

$27 million a year isn't anything. That wouldn't raise taxes an appreciable amount. If you think about it, that's less than $0.10 per person.

Yet that .10 cent's per person could be going to much better things such as education or other things to better our society not push us closer to more like the People's Republic of China...

I thought they where to but they where just put on hold until after the holidays..(of 2011). And being accepted into house and passing are different things.. a bill can be accepted but doesn't make it a law until its passed.

And actually I don't believe its passed yet, but if it has could you link me to the article about it passing? Because I heard it wasn't going to be passed/declined until March. 

Edit:
Wiki says - "[d]ue to the Republican and Democratic retreats taking place over the next two weeks, markup of the Stop Online Piracy Act is expected to resume in February."

Is there a reason you don't post anything of use or are you just trying to up your post count. - Kodyt

it's put on hold indefinately that means that obama doesn't want to fuck up his elections, eventually no matter who the president will be, SOPA will come back and be accepted

SOPA and PIPA are the worst things to even be considered ever.
