    don't worry, there will be other ways to get here. My Government teacher told us to do something like a DNS lookup to get onto a site, but I'm not sure how that works, but apparently it's what they did when computers were first started and they didn't use names, so it would apparently work

    Wait, I thought that websites with .com, .net or .org wouldn't be affected?

    Because I remember reading that at TGWTG.com...

    the only problem is that it's most likely going to pass. And even if it's taken down, all the sites that were destroyed while it was up can't recover. It's going to destroy so much if it comes out

    I have a question, if this passes how will it affect other countries (Outside of America)?

    Found a site where they're streaming the meeting.

    I don't think it'll affect the websites hosted outside the US themselves, but it will effect the enourmous population that accesses the sites.

    Obama's veto doesn't do jack sh*t if enough of the congress is in favor.

    It censcors the internet for the US, pretty much.

    I think the riots in the streets will change congresses mind very fast....

    I doubt it. If they really cared, they'd have stopped already based on all the people who have spoken against it already

    I must agree with you there. At least 60% of the population that is aware of the bill is opposed to it, I believe.

    You'd be surprised how fast pompus suits will change their mind when there are citizens literally banging down their doors.

    I for one welcome our internet censoring overlords.
    Two thirds is a pretty huge number for an issue like this. As of now, it just has to be a majority (51%) vote. And Obama's veto may very well change congress's mind anyway.
