SOPA - discuss

[quote=Luther3000]^ Blatant sarcasm is blatant.[/quote]

[quote=Temzilla][quote=AncientNecro] [quote=Toshabi] I think SOPA is a strong way to finally end piracy and I hope with all of my heart that it gets passed. Worrying this much about a bill that will potentially ruin what little social life you have left is understandable though. [/quote] Can you explain your point some more? I'm of the opposite standpoint but would love to hear exactly why you would support SOPA, and if you realize the depths that it will affect? Just interested in someone elses view, because I can see absolutely nothing good coming from SOPA. [/quote] Toshabi is the resident troll. We try to only feed him enough to keep him alive.[/quote]

[/quote] The good thing coming out of SOPA is the end of all piracy as we know it, along with horrible pop sensations like Justin Beiber from being brought into existence. Consider this as preventing another contamination of the internet to be birthed into this world.[/quote]

[quote=tehAsian][quote=Yougan] The maya have been seen in the future. The law will be accepted 21th of December 2012. This is truly, the end of the world... of warcraft... and internet. :D [/quote] lol, my mom's birthday. And I'm probably not old enough to know this stuff. These aside, piracy is wrong, but how come no one has done anything about it? It's been like, what, ~20 years? And [i]because[/i] no one did anything about it, it has become common, and by becoming common, done as if it was legal. And when they finally try to fix it, they break everything affiliated with it that was actually legal. Am I right about this, or completely wrong? I just started reading about this, sorry :p[/quote]

[quote=AncientNecro]Hmmm... no Justin Beiber sounds fantastic. But what if SOPA infringes upon your religious beliefs? HMMM? SOURCE + INTERESTING: http://www.globalpost.com/dispatches/globalpost-blogs/weird-wide-web/kopimism-file-sharing-religion-sweden[/quote]

This bill, on the other hand, is like carpet-bombing a neighborhood because there's some drug trafficking there.[/quote]
