So, PIPA hearing was moved, SOPA has now been shelved and finally, ESA has dropped its support. They might still come back, but for now, its over. Thank god. |

DarthHelmet86 | Seems like a better idea, but it has it's flaws. But it does prove one thing, the MPAA and RIAA don't give a crap about due process they would rather just be able to control the internet and not have to deal with actually defending their copyright and proving that others are actually stealing from them. | |

"The OPEN Act secures two fundamental principles. First, Americans have a right to benefit from what they've created. And second, Americans have a right to an open internet. Our duty is to protect these rights. That's why congressional Republicans and Democrats came together to write the OPEN Act." A reasonable bill that aims for both? http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/n...e-internet.ars http://www.keepthewebopen.com/ |

Anti piracy law 1> If the Us government pass this law and they are going to pass it in two or three days, all the piracy sites will be banned and the dangerous thing is the Congress is involving Social networks sites too in to this bill. 2> And my second point of view this is that all those sites which are hosted in US and gives quite good revenue to US government all of those sites can change their hosting to other countries because of this law. Is there US government is thinking about this money loss. |

They really seem to think that if they keep yelling PIRACY that everyone will just go "Oh that's a great cause let us just ignore that their ideas are stupid and won't work cause it is all to stop piracy.". I learned as a kid that some of the most horrible things ever were done by people with the best intentions of stopping some other great evil, I guess this people never learned from history at all. And the irony in that quote is just so damn huge, how dare they do what they want with their free market rights, they aren't agreeing with us that makes them evil. |
