Let's talk about SOPA

However, last I checked this bill passed, correct me if I'm wrong...

I think, that the bill will stop piracy but ignite something far more "dangerous" and "destructive", well it already did.
Hackers, white and black will unite against this bill, and for every site that was taken down, there will be 2 GOV sites taken down, if not even rooted, we've seen what anon can do, and now imagine every single hacker joining the cause, every single script-kiddie using LOIC like apps...

This will bring the cyber-war to it's true state...

I don't think you have the right idea. Any sites you use on American servers can be taken down, so if you enjoy using any sites like that there is a chance you won't for long.

And if you think hackers will start a war, you're wrong for the most part. If any hacker does that, they are misinformed and ignorant. "Yeah..these old people in Congress are passing a bill to censor the internet because they don't know what it is and how much they are ruining. Let's scare them even more with the anonymity of the internet by hacking their websites." There is no logic in hacking .gov websites, and it won't help the cause one bit.

Where have you been? The constitution has been violated time and time again since its creation.

Lol, same as I said before. You won't see much hackers fighting back or doing anything productive. The only "fights" you'll see is of big companies fighting back in legal battles (youtube, google, facebook) to keep their websites up. I doubt the big ones will fall, they have insane amounts of money to be spent in legal disputes.

Small businesses, blogs, and forums will take the biggest hit here. All this bill will do is make it harder for websites to move up, which is not the goal at all. The bill is insanely silly tbh.

I believe SOPA already has been stalled btw. It's been taken out of comittee and is currently going nowhere. It's not being voted on. There is however a similar bill called PIPA being considered.

Yes I mentioned Protect IP in the OP, the two are pretty much identical.
