Stop Online Piracy Act

Protests against GoDaddy who came out in support of it; urging people to boycott and moving away from using it. Which I am fine with cause GoDaddy sucks.

I've never dealt with them, but their cheesy advertising has always annoyed me.

Do something you guys! Create a White House account sign the anti sopa bill. I did we have already broken the 25,000 threshold. I even emailed Obama. Quit bitching and sign the petition.

Something that really bothers me about this, is that we have a board that has a higher intellect than others yet nobody sees the real issue on hand. This isn't about stoping piracy but having a Government mandated and controlled internet like other asian countries. This is phase one. Even the owner of OPENDNS has tried to have congress use filters. I hate OPENDNS which I have to control for work but once you block proxies you can't even change settings it reconfigures your computer, even with aftermarket tools.

I've always felt that they were using piracy/IP as an pretense to throw in a Great Firewall of China. Some supposed members of the two parties might actually be neither R nor D, but rather Fascist (Who would vote for a confessed Fascist? Of course they'll mingle to camouflage their true intents.).

If this passes, what next? Are we going to have to strike "land of the free" from the National Anthem? I heard that some corporatist jackoffs actually tried to overthrow FDR and turn the USA into a Fascist state (Thank God they failed).

Yeah it's a cover to a start communist America, where Governing powers can control what we are allowed to read the piracy is smoke and mirrors. I agree the problem is when you pass a bill like this it never stops.

It pisses me off this isn't about piracy nobody fucking sees this!

I don't think you even need the conspiracy theory to see how it's not about piracy at all. I wrote an op ed about this, we'll see if any papers pick it up.

Let's see the editorial. I have one too but you never mentioned why intelligent games here can't see thru the bullshit. Yo even TNL has ads for downloading pirated material. It's moving into complete Government controlled and Time Warner controlled internet. Podcast couldn't see the truth either. Does yours touch on the aspects of the NWO and the Illuminati? Key points in an Editorial.
