censor: 2 : one who supervises conduct and morals: as a: an official who examines publications or films for objectionable matter b: an official who reads communications and deletes material considered harmful to the interests of his organization 3 : a hypothetical psychic agency that represses unacceptable notions before they reach consciousness
censorship: 1 a : the institution, system, or practice of censoring b : the actions or practices of censors ... 3 : exclusion from consciousness by the psychic censor
You want to know what's really polarizing? Fuckers postulating that their business takes precedence over my communication and somehow their stance subjects my communication to their approval, filter, law or other means of oversight.
This twisted, ugly and perverted form of aggression that capitalism is manifesting itself into does not serve us well.. imho.
Your, seeming, position will be subverted.
War on this. Government is failing its intended mission and will continue its downward spiral as it continues to insert itself into (and for) the economic solution. I'm fairly certain that's not why you exist.

Mis-ter Masnick! Can I call you Mr.?
Me thinks thou art in dire need of a "nutter" button. Yes, that's it; anutter button.
And I henceforth authorize your usage of my positively fabulous idea. Should it grab some sort of foothold I grant you stewardship of said fabulous idea and hope that you would be of the mind to kick me down if the ride is good.
Please consider mine the 1st through 4th votes using aforementioned super-nifty (not to be confused with "super nifty") nutter button for this post's poster.
On a final note, being that the poster is, in fact, the originating societal influence for this super-nifty and fabulous idea I, in turn, reserve the right to kick him down should the ride accommodate three sledders.
Thank you.
If the state allows for the blocking of websites based upon an accusation then the state is directly enabling the ability to censor. This bill not only enables the state it empowers the individual to a private right to action. The state will enable censors.
ICE has censored.
Speech, and all of its wondrous forms, is also, now, a data packet.
Censor : to suppress : remove access to : one given the power to censor
How, exactly, did you wrap yourself up in a such a tight ball over the usage of the word censorship?
If you, Bob, tell Bill that my website infringes and Bill says "I see." and proceeds to block my website. You, Bob, have censored me. And that's just the beginning, now I may not get paid. And I definitely won't be able to afford to defend myself.
So tell me, Bob, how the fuck is that *not* censorship?
Ah, yes, I thought about the OWS tie-in to what you were trying to say.. but we all know they took their sweet, sweet time before realizing that it, OWS, meant something to them and it might be in their fleeting interests to engage.
Likewise, should one of these preposterous propositions make it out of committee I'm quite sure you will get your mainstream media drive by. But then again - The Patriot Act got what? 20 minutes.. total.. maybe?
Oh and I tend to disagree with you a bit about the people who might be interested but don't seem to be.. those people, the one's dependent upon that mainstream media to which you refer, are much too busy to be bothered with the curious business of the health of their own country at the moment. There are fat people competing for the Most Weight Lost awards show, and stuff.
"mainstream media"? Who cares? This is between "us" and Congress. And, apparently, about 500 thousand "us" folks are on the verge of finishing this round standing up. Mainstream media contributed nothing.
"Explained as "censorship"(which it is not)". What? We can't take a thread of a possibility and weave it into a highly probable outcome? With the down right disingenuous, nasty, fabricating and fictitious yarns some folks (mostly with money, power or both) weave to get things their way you're complaining about the resonance of a possible censorship message? Of course people will be upset.. dar.
And you think one should attempt to explain it as something it's not then? Like what? Complaining the cost of a CD might go up? Something silly like that?
If you are, in fact, for SOPA than I, for one, would like to know why?
And it is one bean, not a pile, one. And it is likely that other beans will gravitate towards that one lonely bean. Because beans like company. And piles of beans, well gosh, people can actually eat those, or count them.
Nah mate, you're missing the other point. Rome too shall fall. And if you're very, very lucky you will live to see it. But, and I emphasize, it is your responsibility to see to it that your children, our children, all children know what is just and what is right. And they, in turn, are obligated to teach their own and each of us all to continue to chip at the raw stone of society and carve it into a piece that will not betray the hopes and the possibilities of a single mind.
Your money or your life. Choose. .. Not an acceptable choice.

life. liberty. pursuit of happiness. freedom.
Now, which set would one think goes with this day and age?
But piracy! Piss. Off.
"Handling of distribution" Is no longer an option. Go tweak your own nipples instead of mine.
P2P, in whatever form it's forced to take, will flourish no matter what you have in mind for laws. It's communication. So.. next?
