There is always going to be an attack on Internet rights. We just have to shoot them down one at a time.

Exactly. This is nothing more than a ploy to attract votes but it works in our favor.

What does SOPA do for Obama when he already has NDAA?

Damn... Just when I thought Obama rubbed two brain cells together. However it does show the power of the people in politics.

Most people are too uninformed to have any idea what NDAA is. Do a test on the street, in a bar, ask your relatives etc. I guarantee less than 5% of people have any clue what you're talking about.

And 5% would be generous..

 

[lose lose win]

Didn't Obama say he would veto ndaa as well?

It's meant to make everyone drop their opposition to it. We gotta keep fighting that shit regardless of what Obaaama says he'll do.

Looks like Wales is in for a one-day blackout, anyway. Could be interesting.
