Potential for China style internet monitoring?...read, just say no please!!!

Not to be a downer, but here's my thoughts on SOPA, with a bit of optimism near the end.

Disappointing to hear NDAA passed, but something like it passed during the Cold War and things didn't end up like the worst case scenarios that people have been talking about. Still, even without either of those signed, it's not like they couldn't do it anyway. With a gun to your head, it doesn't matter how many papers you have saying you have the right to not get shot; if the entity with the gun wants you dead, you're dead.

Hos do you feel about PIPA?

Good thing I can make some music during the nuke, but I might be at work anyway lol. But I've heard of this. If this happens, it would be a horrible chain reaction. They would even censor copywritten photos and vids which means that the site that hosts the image or video gets shut down and fined and possible jail time. Its very stupid.

This country sucks. Nuff said.

internet = money. Somebody WANTS to control that.
