Very interesting video
In my opinion well worth a listen to how much this could screw up EVERY part of the internet

WTF is SOPA ? aka The American Government trying to ruin the internet

Yes..........Wingnut Theory!

I listened to about 10 minutes and heard enough. Its not likely that sites would be taken down or blocked as this guy claims. Personally I would love to be able to block DNS from some countries. Would make my job running this site much easier.

Even if sites like Youtube or Facebook were taken down..........It wouldn't effect me in the least.

Who does he expect to be debating the issues? We elected who we did. If you want younger people debating it then elect younger candidates. Even if something ridiculous was passed it could be challenged in court.

hence why there are another 10 minutes.

More on general corporate stuff...past youtube/etc

Sure not you, but the rest of the world in major ways. As we know the world in almost every way is totally messed up!

but just means corporate world gained again... more control

sure probably wont happen, but if it did? lol

Corporations already have more power than the average person realizes.
