I believe this bill violates the First Admendment (stated by Lio/Pepsi), the Information Act, and possibly the Patriot Act. Luckily, it's a poorly planned bill that would tick off every young voter in America. And with the US president catering to the young hormone-enthralled masses for votes, Obama probably won't sign this if it does get passed. And any congressman who wants votes from the x<30 crowd probably wouldn't want this passed, either.

But then again, this act would limit access to sites that the government deems "piracy possible," therefore allowing them to ban Americans from websites they don't want us to see. Now let's see... hmm... a lot of countries that like direct-control (absolutist/communist) governments have information limiting policies too. That worries me even more than just the collapse of CBW... and with the president favoring the government-control end of the spectrum... well... we should be at least mildly concerned, if not panicked (for both CBW's death and more government control).

As a US citizen (and a nerd with little social life), I am very concerned about this act and what effects it may have on society.
