    If it’s upheld, that’s the precursor to full-blown info blackouts, just cut off internet to anyone ‘accused’ of wrongspeak against the powers that be, which is basically everyone.

    This also sounds like SOPA reborn.

          So you bought into the think of the children argument?
          You know that’s a red-herring, right? It’s really about eroding privacy.

            It was supposed to be a reference to a meme making fun of “us vs. them” mentalities. I know enough about the think of the children argument.

        Given the US is now ran by the New Fuhrer? I could see this being used against criticism of leadership or anything else resembling free will and not just piracy. I also find it sad that the day the US will probably die as a free country and turn into a dictatorship, is the same day it gained its independence in the first place.
