• Question:-LGBT: What do you think of Congress attempting to "Censor" the internet?
  Congress is considering two well-intentioned but deeply flawed bills, the PROTECT-IP Act and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).
  
  As written, they would betray more than a decade of US policy and advocacy of Internet freedom by establishing a censorship system using the same domain blacklisting technologies pioneered by China and Iran.
  
  Answer:-Pathetic, and it actually scares me that they can even think about it. Why would they even come up with this?
• Question:-Isn't it sad when the far left/right are actually more reasonable than the Dems/GOP?
  The Stop Online Piracy Act was cheered by both parties. The far left/right had something else to say about it.
  
  What a screwed up world we live in when I agree with the extremes more than I agree with the parties who are supposedly more "moderate".

  As written, they would betray more than a decade of US policy and advocacy of Internet freedom by establishing a censorship system using the same domain blacklisting technologies pioneered by China and Iran.
  
  The US will be able to block a site’s web traffic, ad traffic and search traffic using the same website censorship methods used by China, Iran and Syria.
  
  Could this pass?
  Yes. The Stop Online Piracy Act and the PROTECT IP Act have widespread support in Congress and are expected to pass.
  *On November 16th, Congress holds hearings on the first American Internet censorship system. This bill can pass. If it does, the Internet and free speech will never be the same.*
