Personally, I don't know that we really need to grow the government anymore then it's already bloated out of proportion self, so not really a fan of adding more employees all over the world to enforce this law.
I think there's parts that work but as overall piece of legislation its overkill and it will have unintended consequences.
Here's the entire bill for those that want to read it: http://judiciary.house.gov/hearings/...0HR%203261.pdf |
You say the scary part is that sites that break laws that have nothing to do with
free speech are going to get what they deserve?
Wikileaks broke all kinds of laws dude. There is a thing called the "Freedom of information
act", that is the process wikileaks was supposed to go through to get the information
it wanted to post. You'd think differently if you had helped catch a terrorist and wikileaks
published your picture, name and address for you to be burnt alive by terrorist seeking
revenge.
Please stop regurgitating emotional spin from idiots who fear everything.
