I have been around here for a few years, and learned quite a few things…
If you watch the view counter here it always drops way off when Congress is on vacation, and goes way up on hot political topics in the media…
Do they even check this site to see what the public wants???

Boston D.A. Subpoenas Twitter Over Occupy Boston, Anonymous
On December 14, Twitter received a bizarre subpoena from the District Attorney of Suffolk County, which includes Boston.
It requested “All available subscriber information, for the account or accounts associated with the following information, including IP address logs for account creation and for the period December 8, 2011 to December 13, 2011

Speaking as a gamer nods to his screenname this is damn fine news for me. Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft (which withdrew their support a while back) are no longer supporting SOPA.

Not anymore. Looks like they lost a lot of business today and it scared ’em good.

“For the purpose of regulating interstate and foreign commerce in communication by wire so as to make available, so far as possible, to all the people of the United States, without discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, or sex, a rapid, efficient, Nation-wide, and world-wide wire communication service with adequate facilities at reasonable charges, for the purpose of the national defense, for the purpose of promoting safety of life and property through the use of wire communications, and for the purpose of securing a more effective execution of this policy by centralizing authority heretofore granted by law to several agencies and by granting additional authority with respect to interstate and foreign commerce in wire communication, there is created a commission to be known as the “Federal Communications Commission”, which shall be constituted as hereinafter provided, and which shall execute and enforce the provisions of this chapter.
I believe unregulated internet wire communications have been illegal since begun. There is no option besides enforcing laws already passed.
SOPA makes absolutely no difference after existing but ignored laws are required to be followed. I wrote wire communication software BEFORE Google existed. Ten years ago it was archived.

I am severely brain damaged but can write and deploy a Google Inc search interface today. I suspect most “programers” can too. My reservation software, see archived above, was so much above search engines in complexity.
Unregulated internet wire communications have been illegal since begun. No option remains besides enforcing laws already passed.

You brought a great analogy into play here. There was another country with a political party called the National Socialist Party that burned books and tried to censor what the populace was seeing. If memory serves they also had a Department of Homeland Security as well. I believe they were called the Nazi’s, and we all know how that movement ended.

This whole thing reminds my way too much of why some say we need more laws to restrict legal gun ownership to prevent crimes by criminals that already cant legally own a gun in the first place.
The same old song they sing about how we need more laws to restrict law abiding peoples rights so they can stop the criminals from doing things that are already illegal by existing laws…
