News Flash. SOPA is a Zombie!

"Wishful thinking, because today SOPA is back in full force.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith just announced that the SOPA markup is expected to continue next month."

Do we have the attention span to remember this anger *all the way to NEXT MONTH?*

Oh man...I sometimes get stuck reading an hour's worth of those demotivational things.  So funny.

Nah, not "stuck" - you can learn more about life in an hour of reading those than an entire week of MainStream Media.

+1!  Damn straight! ;D :Thmbsup:

I suppose that quite a few skilled IT kinds - that have been remaining on the aspect lines - will phase wistfully off into the pit of the (hacking) dark-side the immediate this POS moves if it does.

Not only a zombie, but a zombie that has children...

Actually, SOPA is set to be reformulated in February. PIPA will be revisited with possible amendments in the coming weeks. Case in point, all is still open and possible -- nothing is dead, pulled, or cancelled. If that wasn't enough to keep us on our toes, a new, similar bill has surfaced.

Déjà Vu in the form of OPEN -- The New Anti-Piracy Bill

As an alternative to SOPA-PIPA, Representative Darrell Issa (CA-R), and 24 co-sponsors introduced the Online Protection and Enforcement of Digital Trade (OPEN) H.R. 3782 on Wednesday, during the Internet blackout.
