It's a victory for sure but the battles will go on until we armour the internet with legislation to protect it from all that would try and corrupt it.

Sadly, that is spot on. It would be very interesting to know the backgrounds, affiliations, and voting records of the 39 miscreants who voted for it.

At least we won the day!

Well that basically says that the US have the right to control everything and to take actions whenever they want. It's not only for music or video sharing but any kind of datas. It aims at empowering the idea of copyright by extending it to everything. It's annoying when it comes to music or movies but it's even more dangerous when it comes to datas such as meds. It could prevent needing countries to access basics prescription drugs because of copyrights. Needlesss to say that it also foresee a global surveillance of the Internet without any kind of control.

Anyway it shouldn't be a problem anymore (until the next move). <troll> THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR VOTING FOR SOCIALISM </troll>
