Yeah, we have something similiar here, though we can easily bypass it by changing our DNS, and it mainly goes after sites that host CP, which no ordinary internet user should stumble upon anyhow. Good luck with that shit, though :c Hope, if does pass, that it'll at least get watered down, or, as it usually is, be easy to bypass.
[QUOTE=Darth_GW7;33752214]For those of you (In the UK) saying about how this sets a dangerous precedent...
Try visiting newzbin.
It's already here.[/QUOTE]
i can visit newzbin without problems

That sucks, seriously. Though, one good side of the internet being as global and well known nowadays is that it is closely intertwined with all major businesses, so a total blackout or horribly shit like such won't pass without major companies making a move against it.

Have you tried changing your DNS? I am currently on Googles and I can view sites that have been blocked here. Might work for you too.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;33751377]For some reason, this is coming to mind right now.

That's my favorite part in the series, probably.
People are worried about the future of the internet.
I will now direct you all over here while we wait for them to get back together:

By the time it gets to her the bill will have passed.
Anyone know her email address? I tried going to the government site, but you have to be a resident of California to send one from there.

Issa and Lofgren both read their Facebook and Twitters, just hit 'em up there. I was honored when Ms. Lofgren liked my comment on facebook. :allears:

[QUOTE=Dragoshi1;33751935]So if Brobama comes through, if the bill winds up on his desk, he can stop it and no more SOPA?[/QUOTE]
Brobama? The one that passed NDAA? That guy?
Yea... don't get your hopes up.
#hillarywouldhavebeenbetter

Wait, what. Chaffetz, are you a facepunch member or something...?
We only just now mentioned that a bunch of security engineers spoke out against SOPA...
