The issue is not what will happen if the law if followed as intended it when grey areas are abused.

Abusers of these laws should be punished just as much as companies who infringe.
Can you explain this better please.

Universal took down one song that wasn't theirs?

Took down many songs, some of which weren't theirs?

Took down many songs, none of which weren't theirs?

Took down the whole site?

Link to the news story, from a neutral and reliable source so not a post on Pirate Bay.

Can you quote me what the penalties are for bringing down a site wrongly today and the penalties for bringing down a site falsely under the new SOPA law please. Not a post somewhere, the actual law as it's written.

Otherwise people will think you're full of BS.

Also can you post here what your future plans are for employment. As you think SOPA s so bad. https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1050810
