The only people bringing YouTube, Google or Facebook into this are the people trying to use the fear of losing those sites in order to protect The Pirate Bay.

Read the freaking law...it says the site has to be nearly TOTALLY DEDICATED to the infringement of copyright. The sites you mentioned DO NOT fall under this definition. Furthermore, the entire law is geared towards FOREIGN ROGUE SITES that don't comply with DMCA. I've sent shitloads of DMCAs to Google, Youtube and Facebook and they comply with DMCAs. YouTube has 3 strikes, Facebook has similar and Google removes URLs from it's index within a few hours. These aren't the sites SOPA is concerned with. But if you want to keep being a tool for the Electronic Freeloader Foundation to spread fear mongering lies, you do it knowing you're being manipulated.
