| Alright.. I know not many of you know what SOPA is.. Basically... it is a group of trash trying to censorship all of internet. They want more money and to only allow their media to be seen. Meaning everything online. This does NOT just effect the USA. It effects the whole world. If this bill gets passed. Ucoz will be taken down from the webs.. And not just Ucoz. ANYTHING ASSOCIATED WITH MUGEN! ANYTHING ASSOCIATED WITH ANYTHING THAT EVEN HAS SIMILARITIES TO ANYTHING TO WHICH CAN BE DEEMED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY! This will not just effect mugen... youtube, facebook... this will effect everything in the entire world.... NO JOKE HERE! Does not matter where your from in the world.. Stand up against this... Here is a youtube video link for all of you to watch so you can understand a little bit more...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhwuXNv8fJM
Watch the video... Very soon they will be passing this bill if not stopped. THE ENTIRE WORLD NEEDS TO STOP THESE PEOPLE! The USA is supposed to support free speech... this bill is a communist bill... I am serious... It takes away freedom of speech... Chat room sites, upload sites, anything and everything you can imagine! T_T Stand up against SOPA my fellow mugen friends...

| 1 correction to this. It's a bill, not a group.
It expands the ability of U.S. law enforcement and copyright holders to fight online trafficking in copyrighted intellectual property and counterfeit goods.
And like he said it infringes on First Amendment rights and is Internet censorship that it will cripple the Internet and will threaten whistle-blowing and other free speech.
This will also effect the world of Online Video Games. You'll pretty much have to host private Severs if you want to play online.
So do not just do it for Merica, do it for the online world.

To me it is a group... A bunch of people in the music industry and more so media groups that want to control that which is seen or done online. It is not just about censorship or even privacy in my opinion. All about control... control the internet.. control the information source.. T_T

pretty damn much... if they consider every site that infringes or will possibly infringe copyright to be a rogue site and close it... that's pretty much the entire internet i mean... sure its to "stop piracy" but... like really?... REALLY? If this bill is passed the internet will basically just get eff'ed over.

They gain control over almost all advertisement online and more so the webs just by saying to which ever is deemed to be censored.. Also with IP blocking it will effect everyone globally. The worst part is.. it is NOT just a simple bill. It IS a group of people who wish to pass the bill in the media to which will have overseer power of the bill's effect... Sadly, they are rather evil people and would do NO GOOD with this bill. T_TAdded (2011-12-18, 5:57 PM)

Quote (Nemesis_LT) No it won't, lol. As for other games, well... I live in Lithuania and you ain't gonna be in trouble here I think.
Does not matter where you live.. It will ban all sites to which would have mugen material from any web developer or internet company with anything U.S related. Or just issue a IP block to any site NOT U.S related so no others can get to said site.. it effects the whole world. T_T And is a very evil bill.

Basically... what they get is full control over the internet to which they would allow us to see or not. As a example... lets say Pepsi is doing really well all of a sudden, then the people who censor like Coka Cola over Pepsi so they can "LIE" or more so say it infringed on anything they wish to say considering ANYTHING can be considered intellectual property and ban ALL sites to which has anything to do with Pepsi. Then they could promote Coka-Cola any way they want. Or lets say, on youtube someone spoke their own mind out and said something they did not like. BOOM! Censored.... Literally with this bill they could destroy the internet... They would have full power to take down any site they wish to and more. But sites like youtube would cause a mass stir up so rather then take that site down they would just censor almost 90 percent of everything they wish meaning a LOT of videos blocked. Basically, they will have the ability to do whatever they want. Thus I call SOPA a group and NOT just a bill. Because it is a GROUP of scum bags to which want more money and power. And the funny part is to which helped them on this road to being able to pass this bill was the Pope wanting to sue someone online for making a funny picture of him kissing someone. Strange times indeed for all of us.... =(

| we people have a chance of overcoming them simply by not using internet at all, what would they do then? they can't force us to check out their advertisements etc can they? it would be total useless then

| Ah the wonderful world of US Politics.
The thing is, SOPA is going to pass, the signs are all there. Hundreds have called and emailed senators and congressmen and most aren't budging. So guys, enjoy the internet while you still have it uncensored, because come early-mid January, these idiots are going to cripple it forever.
