This Thread Has Been Censored by the Government

Thought you were pro government?

Pro govt. and pro corporation are 2 different things.

Google doesn't want SOPA. Google is a corporation. Are you or are you not pro corporation?

The Hollywood studios want SOPA.

Google is bigger

It's encouraging that the big websites (and some small ones, too) joined in the protest yesterday opposing SOPA and PIPA.

The only thing that stands between this corporate-controlled oligarchy and outright tyranny is the Internet. We have to keep it free and uncensored.

...and the 2nd amendment.

I'm in favor of SOPA. Too many copyright violators get away far too easily.

The libertarian in me agrees with this. SOPA = Big business(Hollywood) meets Ayn Rand. GOOGLE= Taggart Transcontinental

I think the answer is somewhere in the middle. Sites like megaupload clearly are just plain piracy. But the bill as written was a bit too...Chinese for me.

how was megaupload clearly concerned with just piracy? From what i have heard many people use it for perfectly legal reasons, similar to dropbox or other cloud services. They also complied with DMCA requests.

I especially like the name of the bill "stop on line piracy"--who could be against stopping pirates?
Commodity Futures Modernization act--Who would be against modernizing?
Fair value accounting--sounds good.
Stimulus Bill--who would be against that?

any people against the new NAZI laws are not pro-american
