youre all loving handicaps this won't change anything
maybe they'll block sites who's sole purpose is piracy but thats it.

What about 4chan, research sites, and the pirate bay?

Will those be gone?

[Tokerovin]

Um. Comedy Central can say 'forget' at 12am. research is a multi-million dollar industry in America. Adults are technically allowed to say and see what they please. Why are laws concerning twelve-year-olds who are being poorly parented loving up the internet?

That's what it could do, the bill would give the copyright owners control over this stuff though.  Remember the whole Scrolls lawsuit?  Do you trust these people to decide what should be on the internet and what shouldn't be?
