    Stop Online Piracy Act. Not trying to be negative or anything, but some organization wants to stop online piracy. good for them. problem for US is, it might affect the internet in a very catastrophic way. It goes waaay out of bounds in reinforcing copywrite laws. It goes so far, that any trace of music in your youtube video or facebook link that is owned by anyone but you and is not taken down from the website itself, actually THREATENS the website for termination. What does that mean? it means if this law if passed, Youtube is screwed. Facebook is screwed. Twitter is screwed. TFW2005 might be screwed! INTERNET as we know it might be screwed!

    so what im asking is that would they actually let this happen? Google, Fb, and Twitter are all fighting against this, think they will win?

    The last thread about this was closed for politics, FYI.

    That said, I hate this bill for the obvious reasons. I hope it dies in a fire.
