And despite it being american law it can, and will, affect everyone even outside of the US. If US will start censoring the internets, they will give a big example for other western countries to follow suit and that wouldn't be desirable by most common folks at all.

Redfoxxie gave me a link last night that gives me hope. Don't have it on me right now, but Gamespot (as much as I hate the site) claims that the bill has been canceled.

This one: www.gamespot.com/news/congress-shelves-sopa-6348670Whether that's hugely legit or not it does still give some hope. Regardless one shouldn't stop fighting for their rights. Resistance is always good to keep up so crap like this wouldn't hit the shores in a hurry.

Number 100. Electronic Arts. Man. I try to stay positive with this stuff but they keep on making me hate them even more. It's a miracle that I paid full price for A:MR. And maybe I'm just naive, but some of these are somewhat surprising. Like, Warner and Universal Music aren't surprising. I used to have so many videos taken off Youtube because of them. But Disney? That's like, my childhood. It still surprises me that everyone at Disney isn't dressed up as Mickey Mouse and smiling all day. And Nintendo of America? Actually that one shouldn't be a surprise. Getting through the anti-piracy bull on Pokemon Black/White took 4 hours of scouring the internet for peoples' work-arounds.

I was pretty surprised Sony was supporting Sopa and not Microsoft. And Yeah, the fact that EA is supporting SOPA has made me decide that I am buying allt heir games used, not new. Or pirating their games, or just never fucking touching their games. I hated EA already, but now I hate them even more. Mass Effect 3, Dragon Age 3, I want both. But I don't want EA to receive any form of money from me. On the other hand I do want to support Bioware. They should not be held responsible for the actions of their publisher.
