    Seriously? I think most Copywrite laws should be stripped away.

    Well this is an American law, and wouldn't apply to Stalin. Jef on the other hand would be affected.

    Seriously doubt that, even if it does make it past the House, Senate, and Prez., there will be any actual enforcement. FBI would be the ones with jurisdiction and where online tomfoolery is concerned, if they bother at all, they usually just shut down the site.

    Its not gonna pass, and if it does, it's not gonna work. Although if it passes, you can probably expect a lot of government sites to be DDOSd.
