Imagine a world in which any intellectual property holder can, without ever appearing before a judge or setting foot in a courtroom, shut down any website's online advertising programs and block access to credit card payments.
tl;dr, the US government can potentially block website that infringe any links posted by user of the site (you know, like most forums/boards?). Streaming copyrighted material is also being brought back and ISPs will be forced to block these services.
It seems that more congressmen are agreeing on passing this act, so let's help to prevent that. This may affect american hosts and ISPs, but a lot of the sites you visit daily are probably hosted in the US.
we can be cool now too
