This place is fucked then, isn't it, if that goes through ?
Seriously, if all it takes to shut down a site is an accusation of copyright-infringement linking, then fuck me - I've got a new past-time... every one of those cunts involved in this will be permanently shut down. There will be armies of us lining up to make accusations.. Armies.- pretty much. Bye bye freedom of speech, hello Gestapo. Saudi Arabia I mean Egypt is seeing this now.panacea

Can't imagine it'd really take hold. The "internet" started (for the most part) in local pockets around the country. Yeah, the whole www. thing and html and browser standards came about, but the concept was that it would always be free and public. People will not give that up despite government intervention.
Remember dialing-in to a BBS with telnet? If this crap goes through, it would only be a matter of time before private ISPs and new communications networks pop up, just like the good 'ol days. In conclusion, I don't really think this thing could go through because it would piss everyone off, and if it did, it might be a good thing, spurring a new "internet" that people control again.
- You say private ISPs, etc. The thing is the government can slam them as well or would if that happened. FUCKED R wepanacea

IMO, it's precautionary measures being taken by the music / film industry. Those "liberals" out in Hollywood, cough I mean DINO's (Democrats in Name Only), lobbying Congress to do this shit.
They don't want some kid in the Ukraine or China selling mp3's / videos for $0.10 when they are for sale in the USA for $8.99.
The reality of this shit, protect American wares against the rest of the world, especially those countries that fail to stick with copyright laws. Uhmmmmmmmmm like China.
Of course Google and Wikipedia are going to be pissed off, it's a global effort on their parts.
- mp3's?monospaced
- creative wares in general, etc. you get the point. it's an attempt at a lock down on this.panacea
