SOPA and PIPA co-sponsers are pulling their names off the bills, abandoning them.

  Quote

The widespread Internet blackout Wednesday, in which sites such as Wikipedia and Reddit went dark to protest the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and Protect Intellectual Property Act (PIPA), seems to have influenced members of the U.S. Congress.

PIPA co-sponsor Florida Sen. Marco Rubio pulled his name from the bill Wednesday and SOPA co-sponsor Arizona Rep. Ben Quayle pulled his name Tuesday.

Rubio communicated his withdrawal via a Facebook post, titled “A Better Way to Fight the Online Theft of American Ideas and Jobs,” in which he argues congress should avoid rushing to pass the bill that could have unintended consequences.

“As a senator from Florida, a state with a large presence of artists, creators and businesses connected to the creation of intellectual property, I have a strong interest in stopping online piracy that costs Florida jobs.

However, we must do this while simultaneously promoting an open, dynamic Internet environment that is ripe for innovation and promotes new technologies.”

The Florida Senator encouraged his co-sponsor Nevada Sen. Harry Reid to follow his lead and abandon the bill in order to “take more time to address the concerns raised by all sides, and come up with new legislation that addresses Internet piracy while protecting free and open access to the Internet.”

even mark zuckerberg is telling the SOPA supporters to fuck off:

I think they are beginning to understand the shit storm they have started.

if you can't beat them join them

said the other one..

and what has been repeated in US history time and time again, those with money WILL have their way, one way or another.

wow, this talk is excellent. He laid it all out perfectly.

what sucks is even without things like SOPA. shutting down websites like megaupload sends a huge chilling effect through the industry. Website that hosts potentially illegal content can face criminal charges and will need to decrease their liability. Places like Soundcloud and Youtube and Zazzle already voluntarily put up those types of signs in that Ted Talk, and not only do they have a sign but they have a robot that will automatically stop you if you try to do it.

that's true, but at the same time every time a site like this gets shut down it leaves a gap that others rush to fill.
