Internet Censorship bill Introduced in Senate
Total disgrace read at link:
Online IP protection bill sparks outrage - Computerworld
Quote:
"What they have done is create an Internet censorship bill," that will do little to curb online copyright infringement, Esquerra added.
Aaron Swartz, executive director of Demand Progress, a rights advocacy group that has launched an online campaign protesting the legislation, said the lack of due process in the bill is troublesome.
He said that the proposed legislation would allow the DOJ to bypass current statutes that require court orders to shut down Web sites. And, he noted that while the law would block U.S. users from accessing affected sites, it wold do nothing to prevent users outside the country from access to the sites.

We just have to try to evaluate them the best we can."
