US Lawmakers Want to Quash Pirate Websites

[mikeee]

regardless of whether the Web site’s owner is located inside or outside of the United States

Who the fuck follows US law OUTSIDE US?

Who the fuck follows US law OUTSIDE US?

This will not go as planned, they will do some damage tho. You can't walk in a Europe Country and start shutting down people, it's easier said than done.

It's just the domain they're going to take?
Well, many sites will just start to go private imo.

Just like private trackers, private warez sites
It may fail, or it may not.

Only time will tell and reveal the future

Regarding this.

ICANN is based in US soil and general TLDs (com, net, org, info...) are managed within US soil. Approving this bill would make it possible for them to seize such domains.

If they approve it. We got three ways to go.

• Use an offshore country TLD registered within country
• Use IP to access website
• Join like the anonymous and aim the lasers against ICANN servers
  with a small chance of taking Internet down
