You will end up being bitten hard. The government successfully bans pirate sites because of piracy? Next it will attack porn because of "brainwashing of children" or some other bullshit reason. Can't you see where things like this will lead?

Of course I don't trust the US government, or any government for that matter. Only a fool would. But I don't fear SOPA. Why would I? Sure, it could be abused just like any other law could, but until that happens, you are all freaking out for the sake of fear. You should have freaked out about the Patriot Act, not a law that is created to shut down those who steal from others. Fat of the matter is, the government can do ANYTHING it wants, right now, with or without that law. Toss some child porn on your site and see what happens.
This was said about the internet kill switch too. We're still here. Said about 2257. We're still here. SOPA will work or it won't, and we'll "adapt or die." Hopefully, most operating illegally will die.
Don't steal, don't worry. Simple theory. You don't do it offline, so don't do it online. If you do and you get caught, sorry about your luck.
