They are trying to resurrect SOPA and it is the time to shut it down again.

Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come and we, once again, must fight to stop SOPA one more time.

They are trying too hard to take control over the internet and in orther to push we need to sign this:

It's unfortunate that just about everyone speaking against SOPA spoke out only against the nasty side-effects and methods and even often explicitly said that the intent was good. The intent of stopping sharing is not good, either. Sharing is good, and the war on sharing needs to end.

By the way, I don't see a source for this, and the text on the petition is not very helpful (and badly written; it's "copyrighted", not "copywritten"). It doesn't really explain what it's talking about.

You are right. They mention a lot the side-effects but not that much the fact that they are penalizing sharing and this is the worse thing on its own.

Well, again I have to say this: people bring this on themselves. If the internet wasn't a place where people have no respect for laws, morals and principles, maybe these laws wouldn't appear.
SOPA and PIPA and all the other offensive laws they come up with it, are wrong and I really hope we can fight them back. But it doesn't mean one has to agree with everything they are trying to attack. Truth is, they hide their true intentions. They don't care about piracy, they are going after the people that talk about freedom and fight for it. Taking pirates down is just a mask for their true intentions.
