Okay, so lots of people like me have no lives and like to spend it on the internet, right~? How would you feel if the Government took away lots of sites, like Tumblr or Youtube or Deviant Art, due to some copyright law that might get passed by the end of the year? Pretty ticked off, right? I mean, that means we'll all have to find something ELSE to do, or worse, go out in the world and get lives. SO! If you want to save the internet, go here;

I actually think the act would be good.

It would enforce people to actually ask permission from a person to use their music, video, etc. If youtube went down, many music and video markets would go down, yes. But Tumblr and stuff like that and facebook, they're just making people go outside less, talk on the phone less, and making other technology like phones useless at home. Yes, people think that this is in direct violation of the right of the press, but in actuality this should already be in play. Large websites like YouTube would have to hire more people to check videos about songs not being sited, effectively making more jobs available to the public.

Example:

Hmm... Should I make my own music or just take *band*'s song?

*SONG TAKE*

what about people like me who find it hard to learn without music *turn on music from youtube*
Or talk to my half sister i havent seen in 8 years *turn on facebook*
Or when im in a bad mood and want to see funny pix *turn on tumblr*
Its peoples own choice on how mch time the spend on the internet, sometimes fro school and such we have to use youtube. I think this "Act" Is horrible and stupid!

I think it would be good if we didnt have internet because then people would know what the real world is

you tube; ok whatever sure
My sister; Like i have her number!!
funny pix: what the h*ll is failblog

You think the government should control what we do on the internet? What are we, China?

And, if what if sites like failblog shut down too? Hmm?

I signed, SAVE THE INTERWEBZ!

As long as i have facebook, funnyjunk, forgifs, and 9gag im good

Oh no.
NO ONE IS TAKING YOUTUBE AWAY FROM ME

what is this. communism or what.

NO ONE WILL TAKE AWAY FUNNYJUNK AWAY FROM ME not even the goverment

Sg.. Why does it seem like you're supporting SOPA?..

will you really support an act nicknamed E-PARASITE
i mean
seriously
that just doesn't even need any details

Obama has already said he will uphold net neutrality, meaning SOPA will be vetoed if it makes it to his desk

[That was a link, bytheway]

There's a good chance most forums will get shut down too. Like...hmmm...CHB?

Lots of arguing, mumble mumble. Also, to all people who like this bill, even if it DOES pass, there will be websites that get taken down. MAYBE Youtube, MAYBE Facebook, MAYBE even this site. I'm sure that if this site does pass, some of you who think this bill is good will maybe not like if it actually DOES pass, and then what will you do?

They really can't pass this, people realize, don't you? I mean, if they pass it they'll be shutting down sites for the entire WORLD. We don't have the power to do that, so if it gets passed, we've fu**ed ourselves over because the internet is world wide, it's not just in the U.S. That means that if something is taken off the internet, it's taken off the world. It's not a 'if you start citing' thing, either, from what I've read. It's a "so and so says that you're breaking copyright, BYEBYE SITE!" type thing. Meaning facebook, youtube, tumblr, all forums almost, anything. Most music sites except for itunes. I bet even some sites for schools will be shut down, because god knows I've been on a lot of them for school work, at school, instructed by the teachers that have taken things without citing them. We're sort of screwed if the bill gets passed.
