SOPA is f***ing DEAD
Lamar Smith, the chief sponsor of SOPA, said on Friday that he is pulling the bill “until there is wider agreement on a solution.”
“I have heard from the critics and I take seriously their concerns regarding proposed legislation to address the problem of online piracy,” Smith (R-Texas) said. “It is clear that we need to revisit the approach on how best to address the problem of foreign thieves that steal and sell American inventions and products.”
Good job, everyone!
“You know,” says the asshole online, “if people directed the same energies at this that they directed at things like war and blah blah blah we’d be etcetera and so forth.”
Idiot, this was something universally reviled and viewed as a mistake. Unlike this issue, others don’t have the same level of opposition. Sometimes people agree overwhelmingly on some issues and not on others. And that’s okay.
Score one for freedom and jobs and America and stuff.
