I'm sure that this kind of thing won't happen to me since when the family got internet out her in Merlin/I live in Grants Pass, the dude who installed the internet didn't even give us a price-tag or a time to pay the internet bill.
Take that any way you want, but that dude was awesome.
There have been times during the last week or so when my net conked out, but that was mostly due to cloud cover or the recent asteroid passing by the planet and getting into the path of some satellites and caused the internet to turn off for a while.
I'm thinking that the Internet I got doesn't belong to the major ISPs/Like ComCast or Verizon, and heck, I don't even see Dish Network in there.
I'm not saying that this may not happen to me/Heck, I've been careful about this crud on YouTube as I make sure I only use music that my friends have made to avoid getting a strike on my account.
The only thing I'm probably gonna say about this? Just be careful and do what you need to do to protect your info from those who'd want to use it to give you some form of Jail-Time.
Other than that, though? Just wait and see what happens. If this happens to a good chunk of people, fire up whatever you need to protect your internet.
If it doesn't happen, just go about your business./div>
My god, has Lamar Smith learned NOTHING from the last time when we kicked the butts of SOPA and PIPA, not to mention ACTA?
Apparently not! He's got a bunch wad of money stuffed into his ears and thus, he doesn't care abut the American people. He is pure scum and should be voted out of office NOW before this new bill called IPAA/Real original Lamar can get out of hand.
Call up your representatives, send in emails, send petitions, I don't care. If it worked with SOPA, PIPA, and ACTA/I'm pretty sure that they did work, we should rise up and do it again.
Let's vote Lamar Smith out of office while we're at it as well./div>

Where's the petition to stop this thing? I want somewhere to put my john Hancock.
(SHAKES HEAD IN DISAPPOINTMENT)
Looks like we'll just have to keep on telling them that BILLS LIKE SOPA ARE NOT NEEDED./div>

YouTube actually introduced a system that people can either accept or not use at all. I like that.
Although, I never got this notice whenever I replied to a comment on any video. Weird./div>

My god. The people in the HJC and Lamar Smith are complete and TOTAL MORONS!
Apparently, they must have had a memory lapse about the SOPA thing and they're wondering why their bill didn't go through.
I got an idea: because we all hated it with our slagging guts.
I bet that once this IPAA/really original guys goes down and goes boom in their face, they might get the hint this time./div>
