US Government Censoring our Internet

WooTTooWMore then likely yes.
SOPA will probably not pass but from what I heard it may have passed under a different name since megaupload is down and the founder and the people working for it were arrested it more then likely did pass under a different name.
Better hurry and grab some popcorn for SHIT IS ABOUT TO GET STARTED

Megaupload been taken down has nothing to do with SOPA deadline, if they are carrying out illegal activies they are going to fall eventually.
SOPA will probably pass and I don't really care.

they will eventually withdraw. Obama said so himself that it is against the U.S Constitution so we, the people of the United States (and the world of course!) have everything against him if he keeps this up

dgrayman42Would this site be affected in anyway?

probably. if site owners are getting arrested too its best we hide seph

Because fighting and rioting would solve the problems. Stop being stupid.

Nitemare_ Plague · #67what'd they do?

The same things they always do, take people websites down, yet again they will run out of resources and fail to make an impact.

They took down a popular site in the worst possible moment.

Replying to #69

What resources are you talking about? It's not like it's actual war.
And they did make an impact. They garnered a lot of attention. A lot of sites got taken down, FYI.

Replying to #69

I believe he suggested watching the riots and fighting for the sake of entertainment, as opposed to supporting that idea.

Replying to #70

I'm talking about having enough people to take down these websites also most people who can vote or even make a change to this bill arn't going to know about anonymous or what they stand for.

http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2011/08/the-legislation-that-could-kill-internet-privacy-for-good/242853/I don't post here very often, but I must spread awareness.
We must fight them in every stage possible, and on stages they have no comprehension of!
We must destroy all attempts to destroy our freedom!
Don't let anything evil slip by without talking to your Congressmen, Governor, Representatives and President!EDIT: Let them know ANY internet censorship is un-American and violates the first amendment, and Surrenders a Universe of free information to those whom wish it not to be. Totalitarian states censor the internet, and we are a Democratic Republic, regardless of what they do to try to create a police state.
And they had best backpedal on the police state legislation too, if they know what's good for re-election.

If thast bill passes...
We shant let that happen
le Internet is still in danger!

If it does, can't all affected websites just move their servers away from the US?

Replying to #74

I dont think that would be possible as they could probably still get shut down

someirishkid · #74If it does, can't all affected websites just move their servers away from the US?

bandwidth is a lot more expensive outside of the US

Is ARPANET even relevant as of present times?

apparently there is a new one out, called ACTA!!!! f***!!!

According to La Quadrature du Net, a French advocacy group that promotes the rights and freedoms of citizens on the Internet:ACTA is one more offensive against the sharing of culture on the Internet. ACTA (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) is an agreement secretly negotiated by a small "club" of like-minded countries (39 countries, including the 27 of the European Union, the United States, Japan, etc). Negotiated instead of being democratically debated, ACTA bypasses parliaments and international organizations to dictate a repressive logic dictated by the entertainment industries.La Quadrature says ACTA aims at imposing new criminal sanctions and online censorship in the name of copyright.The US, Canada and many other countries have already signed the ACTA agreement and it was recently adopted by the European Union but it has yet to be debated by the European Parliament and so there is still a short window for protest against ACTA to prevent it being enacted.
