That'd be an odd thing to do.

You'd be arrested for disturbing the peace, if anything.

They have noise laws all around DC. I would resist arrest too, so yeah, I would get about two months.

I'd make the Protect IP SOPA ANTI FORCE....

Also you forgot we got hackers on our side too not just Yahoo and Google.

Everything creates more jobs nowadays.

Wait, when is this supposed to go down anyway?

well according to this:

According to the website of the House of Representatives

Latest Major Action: 11/16/2011 House committee/subcommittee actions. Status: Committee Hearings Held.

The hearing was held, but I don't know what happens next (or what happened in the hearing for that matter). I assume it eventually gets sent to the House.

4chan will probably tip the scale by the amount of hackers they have.

I'm honestly not concerned about this. I know that a lot of people are going to fight back. Maybe I will start to like Anonymous.

We just got a law in NZ now you get fined $15k for torrenting anything.
It's not all pirating, you loving fat technologically starved forgetheads who run this country. And, what a loving breach of privacy.

Because this censorship will affect a great portion of the Internet, it might as well be global.

I see people signing petitions from Japan, that's how bad this thing is.

[Supersylox]

Its probably going to be revoked within a week

I've emailed both Georgia senators on the subject, I doubt they will respond or even
Read the damn email.
