As much as it pains me to admit, I agree with you on this one

First video: Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom appears in court

Not related to SOPA..

SOPA and PIPA have been tabled for now.

SOPA and PIPA have been tabled for now.

Postponed indefinitely. They're basically waiting for people not to care so they can pass it later.

The only pro about this bill is that Justin Bieber would be jailed for copyright violations.

Why? He sang the copyrighted songs on Youtube that made him famous. :devroll:

THE BILL DOES NOT GIVE THEM ANY POWER TO SHUT DOWN SITES OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES, A BILL CAN NOT GIVE A COUNTRY JURISTICTION OUTSIDE OF THEIR OWN, THEY CAN BLACK OUT THE SITES FOR AMERICAN USERS BUT NOT FOR EUROPEANS (and the rest of the world ofcourse)

Everyone that believes what Reece has posted is a complete retard, please refer to EliteTerms first and second post for confirmation.

Check out Megaupload, can you steal access it? I doubt that.

That had nothing to do with SOPA, for example, Limewire was shutdown when SOPA didn't exist.

Contrary to what you realize, I'm an American, and thus I have plenty of rights allowing me to tell people to stop being racist towards Americans in this topic. If you don't like my posts, you have the freedom to report them, as well.

@Jubin: Lol your pic puts it perfectly. Hopefully ACTA gets shelved too...

American is not a race.

Also the criticism isn't towards all americans. You should have a valid argument if you want to defend your nation.If not, stop bitching.

It's not so easy to move entire farms of servers, nor is it easy for an entire corporation the size of, say, Google, to move countries. Also, the integrity of the global DNS system would be compromised.

Hey, thats a fuckin great idea, if all sites like FB and Google team up and say want to pass SOPA ? Go ahead, we're leaving U.S. and moving somewhere else, I BET YOU!! The government will be at their knees within 23 hours if that happens!

Criticism not agaisnt Americans, agaisnt your shit ass government who claims to allow and encourage freedom, yet manages to manipulate it's population with bills and companies personal interests.
