I use nmap, traceroute, ping, GCC, binutils, bash, lighttpd and SSH on a daily basis for legitimate reasons.
I dare the government to arrest me since all of that is "hacker software".
(If I need to check for holes in my config, I use nmap. If I need to test the network; ping/traceroute. Need to compile? GCC. Need to have a secure connection to a remote server? SSH and bash. IF I NEED A FUCKING WEB SERVER, I USE LIGHTTPD).
More legislation? Sweet! Hollywood is going to LOVE devising the all-new SOPA v2!
Will it include DNS filtering? Yes? Sweet, that supposed billions of dollars of damage will be kept out while people go find more European, Chinese and Canadian proxies so they can access "pirated" material! Amazing!
Will it involve DHS? You betcha, we're doing this for "national security". Oh, and we're throwing in the NSA, just to go piss you off.
Will it remove the 1st Amendment? You betcha, that was a stupid piece of shit George Washington did there! He certainly didn't have a brain, nor does the American public. Get used to it.
Will it fuck the DMCA whole? What was the answer? YES, YOU DUMBASS! The DMCA's takedown process makes us queasy. We want a faster way to do it, cheap, fast with no form of oversight. Like McDonalds.
Love,

This might be handy. Popups have been around since at least the late 1990s.
And once Atlanta is cut off from the internet, I can see that Dallas will be the problem next.
Do I get a return on this tax?
Back to on-topic conversation, we should have a common sense law passed centuries ago. But everyone else would lobby against it. :$
Re: Hold on...
Exactly. I love that mocking.
And how we need this delete button because it really sends it to a trash bin you need to empty. That's called "common sense".
Being a open-source user myself (of Debian and Ubuntu), this is an obvious +1 and a view I happen to agree upon.
Also, lol about the Special 301 contest ;)
Re:
I was too late.
But still, I facepalm at the thought.
First :P
The irony is because I watched it with 100% free software: Firefox with the YouTube HTML5 beta on Fedora 16. lol

Re:
I am just looking at all those jobs Obama is creating in government! I sure hope all of them are related to IP. Thank you Hollywood!
