call me cynical but we are fighting a war we will not win.. SOPA is a -retarded- bill that may pass .... patrtiot act... I wouldn't be surprised to see this one go through either. Hopefully with the support of pelosi and franken it won't but we will see.<br>
the thing that bothers me is they are trying to make something legal that they do already without due process. It wasn't but a few weeks ago with a seizure of 100+ domains in preparation for black friday. I think its a good idea to remove shit sites that fool people but at what cost? We give up a little and lose a ton. This type of domain seizure by govt agencies is already happening and is going to continue. .<br>

Atleast Franken has taken a step to get them talking more than their joke of a press release.<br>
