The Protect IP Act
Even though many of us here are not in the United States, I just felt the need to post this here as well as possibly many other sites so I can help with the stopping of this ridiculous bill.
This sums up the whole thing. Read and watch everything on the page and you will most likely rage over it. You can help stop the passing of this bill, but I wouldn't exactly worry too much since the President would likely shoot it down given how ludicrous it is.
What they are basically trying to do is take away out freedom of speech here, and if the bill is passed - I'm calling it now - There will be a very bad revolution against our corrupt government. Just think of Occupy Wallstreet and Occupy Stockton. They're already trying to start a revolution, but the officials feel the need to arrest protesters even though it would be going against our Right of Assembly.
The bill itself for people who want more detail and can understand it.
Discuss.

Another bill? I wish they would would stop with these bills. I remember an earlier bill was proposed sometime earlier this year, called Bill S.978. It failed to pass or something. I haven't heard anything about it since.
I am doubtful about this bill passing as well, but, apparently, many from the senate support this bill, so I'm not sure.
Wait, since video games are copyrighted, if they start to mess with Let's Plays/Let' players, including me...

I need to knock some common sense into some gov't people. *grabs bat* Who's with me!?

Stand up for your rights, or you'll end up like a more paranoid, oppressive version of Australia or China.
Sounds like a lota hooplah to me.
Heh heh, gotta love exd's once-a-month contributions.

Please act. If SOPA goes through it will be the end.
Already active against it, but there aren't enough Americans here for me to have posted on it. I subscribed to "Demand Progress" a couple of months ago.

I honestly think the senate would take this more seriously if they'd take out the song. >_>
