Re: Sopa is Dead - The People Have Won12 Years AgoI'd like to believe it's dead, but it's not.
The senate still has PIPA and Europe still has ACTA. With so many supporters, it doesn't matter if Smith pulls the bill. It'll be hanging around for a while, you better believe it. |

Re: Sopa is Dead - The People Have Won12 Years AgoOriginally posted by LadyKarissa SOPA is not dead. It has only been shelved. President OBAMA refuses to sign it and he has said he will voteo it. January 24, a similar bill will be introduced in the Senate known as PIPA. No, SOPA isn't dead. However I point out that PIPA is the senate version, so it's not going to be "introduced". It is also taken out with PIPA so the vote will do nothing. Right now, we should also be working against ACTA, which is a European censorship bill that is disguised as a trade agreement. It was worked on for years in secret by 39 countries. Not only will it censor the internet, but it will also take away many generic medicines have saved many, many lives. This bill does affect Americans. It would make it tricky for European media and products to be used in America, possibly stripping us of our right to enjoy some European films, TV shows, music, foods, drugs, and plants. |
