    US users couldn't access it and Google and other search engines would have to remove them from the searches.

    It's crazy how greedy the movie industry is. I can understand music companies. Movies make an insane amount of money on the theater goers.

    I tossed in the bit about Google .

    A bill like this is enough to make someone want to leave the country.

    Ugh, so annoying. Hopefully this goes the way of the wind. I don't want to have to move to Canada.

    Already sent an E-Mail to my Congressman.

    This has nothing to do with American politics, it's was originally a well meaning bill that was inflated into a mess by private industries who have politicians in their pocket and now they're pushing for it because they keep blaming piracy and went to set the entertainment back decades to the point they control everything yet again and everything is expensive as fuck. No way this is passing and even if it does, it's not going too last long once it hits places like Facebook and Google because that will be the point that drives this country into unification against a broken system not even the craziest Republican can defend.

    US of mein A, when have you turned into China


    Doubt the bill will actually pass, but hope EP isn't hosted in the US, just incase it does...

    Don' worry, it won't hurt... that much!

    EP is either served in Canada or somewhere in Europe I believe.

    Also, out Supreme Court decided corporations are people. Don't sit there and say this won't pass, because there's a good chance it will. If you live in the states, speak your mind to your congressman and help in online protests, this shit can't be allowed to pass.

    I am against all censorship.
    The Internet is supposed to be freedom. Good and bad.
