New Legislation Would Crack Down On Online Piracy
GovTechGuy writes "Members of the Senate Judiciary Committee unveiled new legislation to combat online piracy on Monday that gives the Department of Justice more power to shut down websites trafficking in pirated movies, films or counterfeit goods. The new bill would give the government the authority to shut down the sites with a court order; the site owner would have to petition the court to have it lifted. The judge would have final say over whether a site should be shut down or not. Business groups including the US Chamber of Commerce hailed the legislation as a huge step forward."
moron.
just admit it.
you're a two fucking bit moron.
Yeah the summary left out some important bits:
"The new bill would give the government the authority to shut down [FOX.com and bushsucks.com] with a court order; the site owner would have to petition the court [with fellatio or cunning lingua] to have it lifted." Okay. Now it's complete.

>>>Ever notice the same people who call Net Neutrality a government takeover of the internet are usually pretty quiet whenever somebody in Congress proposes a law that'd allow them to block or shut websites down?
No. In fact Limbaugh, Beck, and others have been talking about the government's ability to shutdown random websites for almost a year now.
Nice troll though. You got me and several others to respond to your Strawman Argument.
Two thumbs up, plus a finger snap with a npple twist.
