Re:
I also use Vodafone. I first noticed content control when trying to access the web site of a local brewery. It's insane.
I can easily avoid their content control by using wifi, so what's the point? They're just trying to avoid 3rd party liability.
It's also easy to bypass if you google for 2 seconds.

They don't get it
I think the republicans dropped it because they truly don't get it, and would rather drop something they don't understand than try to understand it.
Maybe more democrats do understand the implications and truly are vouching to 'fix it' (without understanding exactly how much it's broken).

New law
I look forward to the new act that will emerge:
The 'Federal Response to Emerging Electronic Theft Amongst Rightshoarding Dirtbags' (FREETARD act)

Bad wording
It authorizes the Attorney General to block websites accused of copyright infringement from search engines and ISPs
This implies the accusations come from search engines and ISPs rather than web sites are blocked from search engines and ISPs.
It makes the good guys look like the bad guys!
New opportunity
Maybe this guy should get a job promoting SOPA?
