lol, that's probably true, but the morons that want this thing only care about the bottom line, NOT the damage they will end up doing to get it, >.> ya know, kind makes them as bad as terrorists in a wayZachary Amaranth said:Sadly, instead of learning their lesson, they will push for stricter laws. This just proves them right, after all.Kitsuna10060 said:if it passes? watch the world burn basically.
I'll enjoy hearing how these company's in support of SOPA now start losing money hand over fist cause they killed the best marketing and distribution option they had
Well, I might download regardless of SOPA passing or not.Fayathon said:And this is what tor [https://www.torproject.org/] is for.
If SOPA passes I'm going to set myself to using tor exclusively, the government can go fuck itself if it thinks it can stop me from going where I damned well please online.
It's a kind of hidden internet underneath the internet. You can only get on it using the TOR browser, and preferably several proxies. It's the place where prostitutes are sold, hitmen are hired, and drugs are dealed. There's a lot of good information down there, but you have to be careful. If you want info on getting in, you can send me a PM if you need to.binnsyboy said:What's the deep web?dave1004 said:I'm Canadian, so at least I'll have Canadian websites. I'll just migrate to the Deep Web, I already participate in a pretty good forums there. Sure, it's small, but if SOPA does pass, a lot of idiotic kids are going to be flooding the Deep Web, and that will ruin the whole thing.
Works for me, anyways.
OT: It won't be long before the "shooting yourselves in the foot" effect comes into play on the same people who back SOPA, so combined with the uproar it'd create and the boost in unemployment from arbitrarily downed websites it'd get overturned within a few years anyway. That said, I don't want to wait a few years to watch another Let's Play...
That's how 4Chan describes it, anyway. There's actually more to the deepweb than what you can get to just with the help of TOR; the figures on the amount of information contained in the deepweb include .onion sites (which you can only get to with TOR) a few other pseudo-top level domains, which need their own similar program, plus just about any other page that Google can't find, such as dynamically generated pages on company websites. Although yeah, I doubt they'd want to shut down TOR; it was developed for Naval Intelligence in the first place, they need it.dave1004 said:It's a kind of hidden internet underneath the internet.

Just did an nslookup for The Escapist's IP. It's 209.34.224.72. Please add it to that list if you would. I'd appreciate being able to visit if the Web is effectively shut down.triggrhappy94 said:I actually found a list of different IP adress for the servers of different websites, so I could still probably connect to pirating website (not like I'd use them though). Also, pirate ALWAYS find a way, you can use SOPA to nuke them back to the '90s, but they'll still recover.
The escapist might look alittle different, however.

Can someone get the Escapist's for me?
Isn't that kind of one of the main points of the Internet, you can watch or download whatever you want, and reasonably fast to boot?Pandaman1911 said:A situation like that? Only one thing TO do- give up. "It's just the Internet", they'll say. "Stop being such a nerd and get a life", they'll say. "Maybe you'll finally get some time outside", and so on. It's pretty damn hard to seem respectable and sincere when you're bitching about how you can't watch/download what you want on the Internet.
You wouldn't have to immigrate your persons, just your business, and that is very simple to do in a Virtual world. It would be simple to move the content to non-us servers and host through non-us websites if your providing a service on-line. You loose your US customers, this is true, but the rest of the world could still access your stuff.Pyro Ghost said:In Reply To Wereraccoon
I'm sick of the US trying to police everyone as well. I'm sick of other countries allowing themselves to be bullied. There are some American sites that, if blocked, won't be able to be replaced by another country, such as Rooster Teeth. Immigrating isn't as easy as most people seem to think, I've been trying to get out of this country for five years now, I have health, skills, and a good education, but the countries I've been trying to get into don't seem to want an escaping American.
Count me in. I will pledge to never use ANY meme ever again. Where's the recruiting station?Doclector said:Good point.Frieswiththat said:Why not use real swords?

You must be a nor-I mean nerd, and have an internet connection. You must also pledge that if we save the internet, we respect it by cutting out the arrow to the knee jokes.lRookiel said:Im up for joining the SOPA cloaks, what are the requirements?

Personally, we might adjust this idea into something useable as we need to make an economical hit as fast as possible. A half arsed black list isn't going to do it, but we can hit the wallets of the US people and that will spur action quickly. Might be better to consider a 'sopa tax' in where non-US web-sites charge people connecting from the US for the duration SOPA is in affect.
I will begin gathering the ANZAC battalion for the SOPAcloak army. We will fly in as soon as the bill passes.Lear said:Count me in. I will pledge to never use ANY meme ever again.

Understood. I'll get the money vaccuum ready; that'll probably hurt the politicans, lobbyists, and the companies the most.
