Canadian SOPA Could Target YouTube

[Daniel]

The music industry is seeking over a dozen changes to Canadian anti-piracy bill C-11, including website blocking, Internet termination for alleged repeat infringers, and an expansion of the "enabler" provision that is supposedly designed to target pirate sites. Meanwhile, the Entertainment Software Association of Canada also wants an expansion of the enabler provision along with further tightening of the already-restrictive digital lock rules. It's concerning that some of these expansions will create a risky situation for legitimate websites, as SOPA did in the US. Michael Geist outlines the legal history and complications here.

Wonder how would Indian SOPA be?

Indian SOPA involves destroying the physical location that the servers are hosted at.

If trend goes like this, ISPs will be asked to install modems with a bomb attached. After 3 warnings, Entertainment industry sends a magick packet and blows the modem and computer. Hows the idea ?

Indian sopa would take a bribe to get the site down . BTW, this would be one of the rules too.
