A lot of the backing down seem to be about the ability to force American ISPs to block DNS servers, since it is not effective and lowers internet security for real users. But the RIAA and some others still seem to think this is the only way to go, as well as blocking search engines from showing these sites. For some reason they think this will block people from finding these sites...once again showing that the people pushing for this have little understanding of the internet and no respect for the people who actually buy their product.
On that Spain thing...come on America get your government in line, it is not cool to do crap like that. Sneaky moves to try and force something onto another population is in no way Democratic nor spreading it. Show that you don't like it, send a letter or email to your representative and tell them to cut it out and if they wont don't vote for them.
