Your right, the flaw is not in my logic though, its in the application of SOPA's logic. All internet videos are not owned by TV networks, just like NOT ALL internet videos are pirated. Just as NOT ALL content on sites that SOPA will hurt without due process is violating any law.
scenario A: OMG there are stolen videos on the internet, lets remove videos from the internet
scenario B: OMG there are stolen videos on that site, lets remove the entire site.
Do try and remember, the DMCA is LEGAL, whether you like it or not.
