Heck, don't even need to link to illegal files, just go to the boob threads or any other of the images posted on the Outpost. The vast majority of those are posted without the copyright holder's consent. So a SOPA request could cause trouble with just those.
Copyright violations include more than just full downloads of music and movies.
Heck, if Bonk didn't like the photoshop job someone did on his photos, he could file a SOPA request against the Outpost!

No more gameplay movies or funny movie clips to Youtube either if SOPA comes through. and Outpost can forget posting boob pics or screenshots of games...SOPA is so broad blanket ban that you're up for SOPA case if you use anything that isn't 100% created by you and doesn't even lightly hint to any brand, trademark or copyright you dont own.

Copyright violation is not theft. It's copyright violation. There's a reason we have a different term and different laws for it.
It doesn't mean it's ok, but it's different. Copying a CD is not the same as stealing one from a store.
I don't agree.. policing all filsharing illegalities would require us to abandon democracy.
And it's not worth it, make it legal and move on or we can just regress to the level of china and Syria to appease corporations who were to stupid and conservative to move with the times.. Fortune favors the brave who find solutions which can function with how the world really is, spotify is a good example of this.
Uh, if you don't protect intellectual property at all you wouldn't have any of those files you're violating copyright protection for by sharing. No one would make Sucky FPS 7 if they knew it was perfectly legal to distribute it without their permission and without paying them anything.
sorry Yuki I'm doing a hundred things at the same time and not really paying attention to what I'm posting here.

Violating IP laws is not theft. Confused people like to scream like it is...and big corporations pushing strict IP laws like to encourage the confused to keep on thinking that way.
Similarly, parking in a no park zone is not murder. Even though they are both crimes. Insisting the two are equivalent in order to bolster your rant against parking violations would make you look foolish.
If someone sees your bike outside your house, takes a picture and then goes home and recreates an exact replica of your bike....did he steal your bike? Even though you lost the opportunity to resell your bike to this guy and the bike company lost the opportunity to sell him a new one....nobody would call this theft.

If you dont want to buy a game, shoplift it. Shoplifting a game and getting caught only has a minor punishment to it while downloading same copy of the game and getting caught would make you face astronomical fines or jailtime.

Yup. Thats about the size of it. I am siding with you about the government(I have from the start), but you are lashing out at me like a petulant child because I don't support what you are doing.
You started the name calling, as usual.

Your main argument was that this was somehow my fault, which it's clearly not since I don't live in the US. I don't really care what you think I got a majority of my countrymen who support my side and that is all that matters. 
If your feelings got hurt by my name calling, you must be new to the Outpost.

Yup. It's my fault you guys are thieves. It's my fault the hammer is coming down. You guys are not only thieves and cheats but delusional. I don't support SOPA. I said that in my first post, but this is a direct action because of YOU guys. Not me. Remember that.
It's YOUR fault this is happening. YOU.
You don't really believe that.
Your skills are improving however

I wrote a letter to my congressman supporting SOPA because all of the wailing makes me smile.

Its the fault of people like you that live in the US. They wouldn't be doing this if people like you that live in the US weren't doing the same thing you do.
Also you are incapable of hurting my feelings. I only mentioned it because once you whined about me calling you a name first. I was setting the record straight before you did that over again.
