Forgive my ignorance, so there is another chance to stop this bill? It requires another vote by the house of representatives before its sent to the president? Or it needs sopa to pass then the bills are merged? Canada is in the process of passing its own copyright bill that people are unhappy about, our government has majority so it will pass regardless of protest.
Thanks for answering my question, It's not looking too good right now, I thought there was one more process it had to go through (I'm a Canadian who has lived in the US and may again).
In the event they invoke cloture and the senate votes and passes the bill, is it not sent to the house of representatives where it is also voted on? Can someone lay out the steps it would take to become a law, I am not sure of the full process. Thanks for your help.
They are safe guarding their name because congress will certainly make .xxx domain mandatory, and it will pass because because as long as it is still accessible and not modified there is no free speech issue. I have nothing against putting pornography in one area so my niece doesn't come across the stuff while doing a simple search those images show up under everything you type in.
After the House Judiciary Committee hearing what are the next steps to make this bill the law? I was under the impression it was a long process. And if a hold is put on the bill how long would that delay it?

PIPA and SOPA
Does pipa need to be passed before the end of the year or they have to start all over again, and does the same go for sopa? Thanks

Your right congress never tries to regulate the net.

Question
Has there been a date set for the markups on SOPA?

Re: Re: Pictures online?
Thanks Mike
Pictures online?
Would this legislation also cover copyright for photographs? Because I can't think of too many sites this wouldn't effect if that's the case.
Re: Re:
Thanks, I didn't think it would be that soon.
Does anyone know how fast this bill could become law?
Re: Re: Question
Thanks for the answer, I don't know what the chances are of this bill passing, but its pretty scary.
Question
If this passes does anyone know how this would effect Canada or Europe? If a site is taken down does it disappear for everyone or just in America?
