Question from Firering401

Do you think the Protect IP act or the stop online piracy act will pass through the US' congressional system? Also, how long before the passing of these bills will the stupid people at the MPAA/RIAA (and other groups) realize their efforts are futile and everyone will circumvent their measures?

curious to know your thoughts. mine are:

As I have said in the past; this is not a police state (yet), and you can't be jailed for circumventing unconstitutional legislation passed by congressmen (who are potentially retarded)
