SOPA started it's attack D:!!!
Hasan (Tabooti):
Right, Megaupload has nothing to do with SOPA. Since SOPA wasn't passed yet, you can't really say it was an attack by SOPA, plus SOPA is an act, not a group or something, It's basically another tool that the US government uses to spy & control people.

So basically when you type in "www.google.com" In reality that's just a "nickname" for the real website which is "173.194.65.103" google.com is just an easier way to get there.
So if you go up and type "173.194.65.103" You will be redirected to www.google.com.
Now what SOPA & PIPA does, is that when you type www.google.com They don't send you to "173.194.65.103/" They would send you to another IP number that would say "The website has been blocked, ect ect" Although they cannot block websites in other countries, this would only work on the USA (For SOPA)
now in the case of mega upload, they didn't use SOPA to take it down, What they did was they pressured the Domain name provider of megaupload to take down the website ,so the people who were hosting www.megaupload.com (As far as I assume) and took it down this way. The case with SOPA & PIPA would basically allow the government to "Block" websites like www.thepiratebay.org, Although what I understand so far, Is that if you directly enter the IP adress of the website www.thepiratebay.org or (194.71.107.50) It wouldn't be blocked.
So to answer your question, with SOPA & PIPA they won't be able to "REMOVE" Anything from the internet, but rather block it. since most pirate websites are outside of the USA.

i have been mind-f%&^ed, made to look like an idiot, AND proven wrong in one post..
well done! you deserve a cookie :D
*claps*
EDIT: you have also just discovered how to bypass sopa and pipa ;)
all we would need is to stockpile IP addresses of the sites that would be blocked.
Hasan (Tabooti):
IF you live in the USA, Now if you're caught pirating in the USA, you can get up to 4 years in jail I think, and up to 250,000$ in fines.
Now on the other hand, SOPA & PIPA can become tools to pressure the Domain name providers into stopping to host the websites or they may face charges (IF they are US based)
I don't think we should be paranoid about this at all, Just say "no", if the government ignores it... I don't think the population would be too happy with ongoing war, recession (Prolly another great depression), Drones flying around & spying on everyone, overpowered & corrupt police, social inequity, executions, extreme prison conditions and a low education bar... The US government would either take away the rights of the population slowly without them noticing (Which they already are).
To be honest, I don't think anyone would really do anything about it.. SOPA passing or not, I'm glad I'm living in Canada instead ^^
Legal Piracy ftw.
And thanks for the cookie :D

As a matter of fact, here....
