Oops, backfired.

At least 13 members of the upper chamber announced their opposition on Wednesday. In a particularly severe blow for Hollywood, at least five of the newly-opposed Senators were previously co-sponsors of the Protect IP Act. (Update: since we ran this story, the tally is up to 18 Senators, of which seven are former co-sponsors.

Anyone remember all the screams of "Flip flop, flip flop!" when John Kerry was running?

I was for that bill before I was against it.

Back to the drawing board.

Pirates get to keep being pirates a little while longer.

I'm not sure I understand you here. The blackouts were to help persuade people to oppose SOPA. They seem to be actually working. Where is the fail here?

Come on man, do you really think it would help anything? Every time this discussion comes up we have people dropping in to say "It's only for overseas sites dedicated to piracy, don't worry!"

Well guess what, there are already laws to stop sites dedicated to piracy regardless of where they are from. How many domains has the government seized in the last few years? They are extraditing people for LINKING to infringing sites which is a complete crock of shit. Why do they need this amazing new law to keep doing what they are doing anyhow? They don't.

Sometimes, it takes longer for some people to realise reason & feel safe under some control... I suppose its the animal, the free spirit in us, some people don't like to feel controlled or restricted... Were humans & not animals, grow up people & live in a society of laws & respect
