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.
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. .

Even the stuff that is going on with CarrierIQ , its all just sickening.
Atleast Franken has taken a step to get them talking more than their joke
of a press release.
