It managed to get postponed yesterday, then apparently was quietly moved to Dec. 21st for the next hearing, as opposed to next year like most people thought.

Also, the main US media outlets are hardly even bringing the subject up. Most people don't even know this is going on.

corporate money is beautiful. If you can find some footage or transcripts from the debates it's hilarious. Most of the people pushing this legislation don't know anything about the internet.

"It turns out that destroying the American democratic republic was easy to accomplish, historians will write someday. Simply get the three major cable news networks to blather on about useless bull**** for a few days, while legislators meet in secret behind closed doors to rush through the National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 (NDAA), and its evil twin sister, the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), which is a clever name for an Internet censorship bill straight out of an Orwellian nightmare."

When TA 2.0 launches it will be immune from the SOPA legislation!

SOPA has been rightly described as "draconian legislation that far exceeds its intended scope, and threatens the Constitutional rights of law abiding citizens"!!

Time for certain websites to move their content to a nice server location in the middle of Russia or something.

I bet somewhere in that bill, there is a clause if you are going to try and get around it. You get a one way trip to Guitmo.

Russia is not a good place now for that, for the last year they've closed and sued all big sharers and those had to move to Germany and Switzerland

This is legislation that WILL be abused -- many are moving their domains off of GoDaddy because GoDaddy supports SOPA but the truth is if this passes all US registrars will have to abide by its terms. For a site to be somewhat protected you need to have your domain registrar, dns, and web host not be US based. This is bad news any way you cut it.... so typical of the US to be passing important things (NDAA) so close to Christmas when attention (from the educated) public is abysmal at best.
