Proponents of the bill say it protects the intellectual property market, including the resultant revenue and jobs, and is necessary to bolster enforcement of copyright laws

especially against foreign websites. [4] Opponentssayitis

censorship, [5] that it will "break the internet", [6] cost

jobs, [7] and that it will threaten whistleblowers and other

free speech. [8]

The bill would allow the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), as well as copyright holders, to seek court orders against websites accused of enabling or facilitating copyright infringement. Depending on who requests the court orders, the actions could include barring online advertising networks and payment facilitators such as PayPal from doing business with the infringing website; barring search engines from linking to such sites and requiring Internet service providers to block access to such sites. The bill would make unauthorized streaming of copyprotected content a felony. The bill also gives immunity to Internet services that voluntarily take action against websites dedicated to infringement
That is SOPA, protect ip is the Senate's version. It's a bad bill and won't go anywhere. I don't even think it left committee.

A. In order to enforce it, you will need a huge government department to manage internet traffic, block things, enhance security etc.
B. It's too broad and can be abused by businesses to suppress all sorts of activity, from satire to whistle blowing things like wikileaks
C. Scares off investment in internet business and infrastructure
D. Gives businesses carte blanche in enforcing their copyright. Think DDOS attacks on websites and other normally illegal things

Could not watch it at the time.  But, as I stated, I like the idea or gist.

First things first. I am a human being. Secondly I hold no allegiance to any country that cannot respect it's citizens and provide a moral and effective way to govern them. The people in office now are seriously fucking everything into the ground. I do my part by voting writing senators and such but if it continues like this i'll leave. I think it's a bad idea because it puts the government in charge of the internet. It's not the fact that the internet is being ruined (which it is) but it's the fact that my government is trying to control it just like they are with everything else in this country. It's retarded.

Do you vote or do anything at all to try and change any of the stuff that's happening in our country? Do you even pay attention to the news and read up on everything that's happening in today's times?
