I think I just figured it out! WhiteMage75 knocked the stupidity out of me and now I see the light.
The American Government wants to take our arts from us. This is because they saw Equilibrium and realized that is how life should be!
Quick, someone call Christian Bale!
It amazes me how paranoid these freedom fighters are. The evil corporations are out to get me. The evil Governments are out to get me. They want to stop me watching movies and going to art galleries. They want to shut down the Internets. Dey is watching me right now

Here is a review for SOPA the game by Indie Gamer Chick. I found it quite humorous. It does contain some harsh language but it is worth checking out: http://indiegamerchick.com/2012/01/17/sopa/
SOPA blackouts helped cause at least 10 members of Senate to withdrawl support.
Phone calls and e-mail messages poured in to Congressional offices against the Stop Online Piracy Act in the House and the Protect I.P. Act in the Senate. One by one, prominent backers of the bills dropped off.
First, Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, a rising Republican star, took to Facebook, one of the vehicles for promoting opposition, to renounce a bill he had co-sponsored. Senator John Cornyn of Texas, who leads the G.O.P.’s Senate campaign efforts, used Facebook to urge his colleagues to slow the bill down. Senator Jim DeMint, Republican of South Carolina and a Tea Party favorite, announced his opposition on Twitter, which was already boiling over with anti-#SOPA and #PIPA fever.
Then trickle turned to flood — adding Senators Mark Kirk of Illinois and Roy Blunt of Missouri, and Representatives Lee Terry of Nebraska and Ben Quayle of Arizona. At least 10 senators and nearly twice that many House members announced their opposition.
“Thanks for all the calls, e-mails, and tweets. I will be opposing #SOPA and #PIPA,” Senator Jeff Merkley, Democrat of Oregon, wrote in a Twitter message. Late Wednesday, Senator Charles E. Grassley of Iowa, the senior Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, withdrew his support for a bill he helped write.
"The existing bill “needs more due diligence, analysis and substantial changes,” he said in a statement.
I was exagerating a bit to much earlier. btw PIPA - PROTECT IP Act SOPA - Stop Online Piracy Act I was over reacting to the current situation. I very sorry. on the other hand you can look at how fox news is annoying by spreading a stupid rumor about hollywood vs silicon valley http://video.foxnews.com/v/1398329296001/wikipedia-blackout/
here is somthing from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SOPA_initiative/Learn_... I keep hearing that this is a fight between Hollywood and Silicon Valley. Is that true? No. Some people are characterizing it that way, probably in an effort to imply all the participants are motivated by commercial self-interest. But it's obviously not that simple; the public has a huge stake in how the Internet operates, beyond commercial Internet sites or commercial entertainment.

lol Which is why SOPA needs to be heavily revised. Uploading a song for people to download, I understand. But being arrested just because your video had MJ music in the background thanks to a passing car.. Or something. Thinking about it, it'd be hilarious.
Pretty sure that it's illegal now isn't it. Also Komic, unless you have permission to use that music, ( its I think 6+ seconds of playing the song and you have to pay for it) you're not allowed to upload content that isn't yours.

actually, this article here about the music of 'Wicked' mentions a seven-note rule regarding copyright law. i'm not sure if that's the exact same situation as this, but six seconds' worth or a song sounds excessive in terms of being legally allowed to sample it or modify it for new use without credit or royalties paid to the original author.

You do know how many people will lose their jobs if production companies lose the right to royalties, right?

Very lol indeed.
You know what I find truly "lol" is how you can actually support these bills and scumbags like Rupert Murdoch who support this garbage.
