I believe they should make a law where the people have the right to download music and movies that are outdated!

[Alucard9692010]

@POC777 define outdated :)

Whatever doesn't fund big companies and is no longer interesting and informative to the general public but to us.

[Alucard9692010]

@POC777 and who will decide what is no longer interesting and informative to the general public ?

let me put it this way, remember the old Nintendo games... well they are very old, but because of the new consoles online feature, they have stated making money again.

if we were to follow your logic, those games that are now making money again to those that created then, should have been made free decades ago .

Link those big companies to pirated stuff.

This does need stopping, but if it gets through, then we need to get on every government blog site and link any and all site to it so as we can shut them down with there own rules.

@watchcooper Or, rather, the phobia of sour and stupid merchant who don't know shit about how the market really works.

[watchcooper]

@DrMadolite The online pirates also offer people lots of free advertisement or the amazing load of entertainment that smart, creative netizens can adapt as commonly ironic material for the possibly nicer works in fantasy. SOPA is nothing but the sour merchants' phobia with silent downloading.

Whats funny is that Facebook is run by the CIA...hmmmm

[StephenWebb1980]

The government is trying to pirate the internets...

[mrevil0001]

How about boycotting the companies who support the bill and make sure the congressmen who are in favor of this bill never get re-elected? And if the bill DOES pass i'd go with SAsgarter's plan.

I don't wanna miss Youtube, facebook or wiki!

Of course this isn't about piracy!! How dumb do they think people are?! They are really trying to play the people for stupid!? This is all only to control the people! Control what we see on the web. There shit has been out in the open for everyone to see and access and pass the info around to each other. They want to keep us in the dark. While they have access to everything. The money, the best travels, the knowledge, the information, etc etc.While we live like a heard of sheep. I DONT THINK SO!

Americans are screwed.
