Can you not see the precedent that sets for when then religious right get enough power to lobby for porn to be banned?
Also, how does this stop piracy anyway? It might close a few US servers down. But it won't stop piracy as it cannot touch anything outside the US. Unless you want your ISPs to block you accessing anything outside America too? Sounds like the Great Firewall of China to me...

That is a solution. I believe you asked "HOW" and I gave you a simple answer, and your reply to that is "I CANT BELIEVE YOU WOULD WANT THAT". Did I say I wanted that? I was explaining to you how it wouldn't be hard for the govt to crack down on sites (tube,file sharing, etc...) that harbor, promote, and profite from stolen content.
We are talking about COPYWRITE AKA THEFT, not PORN and what is obscene or not. I've never been a big fan of the slippery slope applied to everything. The "user submitted shit" loop hole needs to be removed, then the EXISTING laws of copywrite violations can be inforced and they should be inforced harshly.
