The public outcry over SOPA in the USA

[silicon_toad2000]

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) was expressing second thoughts about SOPA's DNS provisions. He said he changed his mind after he "heard from a number of Vermonters" on the issue. On Friday, several Republicans started backpedaling as well.

Good to hear it! Cause the people DO have a voice! And were louder than big corps when were in numbers!
Use your voice and write to congress! Weather you live in this country or not, the effects of this will be felt globally.

All we are seeing is the usual tactic employed by the cartel lackies, thow out some stupid and unworkable scheme then they will offer a watered down version that will appease the majority and yet still be anti consumer and pro cartel monopolist, same old faces, same old scams.
