Title: SOPA and PIPA
Post by: Dood_D_C on December 22, 2011, 01:34:43 PM

Alright, if you're not aware about SOPA and PIPA then i reccomend either reading about it or watching this very informative video by Totalbiscuit (the video belongs to him not me)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhwuXNv8fJM

Basically, Sopa has the potential to kill the internet
And people are saying that, as it's aimed at potential copyright danger zones, it has the ability to kill Youtube, Facebook, Blogs and perhaps more importantly...gaming

I know it sounds stupid but, as video games provide the obstacle of Copyright downloading and pirating and as such means the bill can remove it.

We're talking about the end of everything we love

If that ain't scary, I don't know what is

Also - TB Was right at the time of posting this video, but the bill has been pushed back to next year for an undisclosed reason
