The "S.O.P.A" (Stop Online Piracy Act) Nicknamed "Protect-IP" Threatens to censor the one thing that has helped people make a living, organize protests, and express themselves, the Internet, Here is how it works.
1:Private coorporations want the power to allow the Government to make US ISP's (Internet Service Providers) block websites that allow people to view, download, etc copyright material. Attacking the entertainment industry. (YouTube, Facebook, blogs, forums, etc)
2: US Based search engines will be forced to remove links to these sites.
3: Cuts off funds to these websites, KILLING Revenue. And can easily bankrupt new search engines and social media sites.
Movies do not even create nearly as much revenue as the Internet does. This is tampering with our freedom of expression
