Those companies have spoke out against it. I imagine the ESA will stay on there but the companies themselves are not for it.

Google owns Youtube and as far as I know Google opposes the bill. Yes. Your facts are all wrong. Don't get me wrong, SOPA is bad, but Google doesn't support it, it won't affect torrenting and Limewire is piracy, not "free music." nah, it's free music dude.

Those government bastards will find some reason to control the internet. They may not be able to do it now but watch, something will happen that will justify their wanting to control the internet. Just like how they justified the Patriot Act because of 911.

There are a ton of legal and political hurdles to overcome if you wanted to move to a different country. It's generally not easy and in a lot of cases, it simply isn't possible at all.

I'm sure its just as easy to jump the border there as it is here lol.

Because Canada is soooooooooooo much better. Well in this instance, everything they're trying to stop with this bill is of the lowest priority of arrest in Canada. Plus the record and movie industries in Canada quit trying to sue over this stuff. Yeah Canada isn't always better, but their government and industries have a few priorities in check. I love how people seem to think that moving to another country is as simple as getting in your car, driving there, and then not coming back, it's not. There are a ton of legal and political hurdles to overcome if you wanted to move to a different country. It's generally not easy and in a lot of cases, it simply isn't possible at all. Actually if you can move there, and Canada allows you in(mostly they stop for past criminal violations, even traffic ones), it's pretty easy to stay and live there. A friend of mine moved to Edmonton with her boyfriend this past fall and had to come back around every two weeks to still be allowed back into the US. She next has to return by the end of this month or she can't come back without filling out a TON of paperwork. Canada on the other hand offered her the proper citizenship steps, she didn't take them, but they make them readily available for those not wanting to live in the US anymore. She's planning to stay in the US when she comes back again, but her crap with the US government gave me info on how they treat citizens not caring to be here all the time.

I believe he's trying to make the point that by simply saying "free music", with him using the example "free money", you're downplaying the severity of the crime. Which it is.
