came back for about a month to see the place woken up again, that's good

and yes, SOPA is most likely the worst bill that has been thought up. If this bill does somehow see light and pass, Anonymous will not be pleased and most likely do a full-scale attack on supporting sites to show their expression. Not only that, but most likely a large scale uproar would most likely hit the streets about this bill, seeing as it conflicts with the very Bill of Rights freedom of speech, knowledge, etc.

@Omega, thanks for the vid, gotta say it's bittersweet Irony to see the biggest supporters are also the biggest pirates in the world

it's also one of the most biggest gambles their doing, expecting this bill to get through even though most of the supporters are the sole reason why 'piracy' is around.

p.s sorry, I accidently upvoted myself when trying to fix my mouse -_-

I can't give gears enough up-votes for making this decision.

@ Omega (as well as for the entire topic): GoDaddy might state their stance publicly about the bills, but that's more likely to mislead people into thinking we convinced them to change sides. Don't believe everything that they say when their money still goes into that nasty bill.

FYI everyone, don't forget about the PIPA bill that's in congress as well; that bill is bad news like the SOPA bill.

I never thought that I start paying more attention to politics once before I heard about those bills. Seriously scary times were entering.

All I can say is good job and thank you for putting the effort in this (although I'm not sure how much effort it actually takes).
