People are silly, this whole thing is silly. If we can stop SOPA why not just oppose this in the same manner? How does he think this will go missed? Just ridiculous.
Congress issues official statement to internet: "COME AT ME BRO"
Why does Lamar have such a hard on for this kind of shit?
Protecting Children From Internet Pornographers Act
Coming up next, Protecting Puppies from Serial Rapists Who Are Mexican Hippie Muslims Act
The great part about american anti-child porn legislation is that it actually does nothing to stop the flow of child porn. Its all on tor sites, and those guys have adblock noscript and all sorts of shit. It just lets the government monitor you on the internet more closely.
I thought the bill was about stop children from seeing porno online or some such bullshit?
Lmao. While they're at it why don't they fucking record our aim and skype conversations 'in case we have terrorist plots'.

Knowing the Patriot Act they're probably already doing that.
2012, year of the bullshit internet bills.
There's also ACTA, which basically could give Border Patrol permission to destroy your Laptop/iPod if they find ripped music on it. And basically forces Providers to disclose private information to the Government with no alternative, which also serves to prosecute themselves for their user's actions.
How would they even enforce this? Can ISPs see through HTTPS?

I'm guessing they most likely have a way around that
protect the people from corrupt senators act

Best not to guess. If HTTPS can be breached then we have bigger problems. I'm thinking the guy seriously has 0 clues on how technology works.
The main reason that I'm concerned about SOPA/PIPA/ACTA/etc is that Haper will undoubtedly try to push something similar through if the USA does.
So fuck this guy.
Guys, you have to inform the newgrounds BBS about this. I will go inform 4chan and youtube.
We must fight!
Because its not like everyone on the internet already knows about this.
Thing about all these new freedom-robbing bills is that the government does what it wants, and all these acts are doing are giving them a bit more validation to do it. Detaining people indefinitely without trial? Look at Gitmo. SOPA? Look what just happened to MegaUpload. As for this, I'm positive that if you type two ingredients of a dirty bomb into a chat conversation a CIA computer clicks on somewhere due to the Patriot Act. So it's great to oppose these things, and I think we all should, but rest easy that if the government really wants to do something, it's going to do it whether we like it or not. Just a question of how secretively it goes about it.

Megaupload was taken down because piracy is already illegal, SOPA is just a more convenient way of stopping piracy. It was already a law that any person who was captured while fighting against the US in combat would be held without trial. Not having censorship bills or laws that soldiers can come ransack your house, beat the shit out of you, and then haul you off to a FEMA camp, just make it more difficult for the government to do whatever the fuck it wants.

This guy is kind of annoying and i dont know if itll actually happen but this shits kind of scary
So, would this make prepaid cards useless as a secure means of purchasing?
Sometimes I wonder how many of our politicians would be different people had the country put regulation into law that forbid lobbying.
Or what kinds of different laws we would have.
