This could be a possible test of the role of Democracy in Capitalism. Whether the people protesting against SOPA or Hollywood et.al sponsored bill, triumph?
I support artist's copyright, but don't support excessive governance. It will just be abused and it will intervene with freedom to share things. Why is internet any different from letting people borrow CD/DVD/BD books or other copy righted material offline? Isn't this another ploy to make people pay even more than they already do. I think copyrighted material should be freely available after it has lived its glory days. Something, like brand vs generic drugs. Just put a label - "Free after 1yr". Just a suggestion!
But I am certainly against excessive governance/rules, it stifles growth. Fear can never lead us in the right direction. Do we want responsible people or opportunistic thugs?

At some point the sponsors of the bill must realize that they are trying to open up a snail shell with a sleighs hammer. there is no way this is an effective way to curb piracy.
