Default **Anti Piracy and Internet Censorship

The government is attempting to pass a new law that will allow them to hold court orders on any site that has copyrighted material available on it. This seems all fine and dandy right? People should pay for the things they want right? Whether you think that way or not it isn't up to the government to shut down the internet because people are listening to free music. Also, this bill allows them full censorship over the web as Americans see it. Here is a link to a petition against the bill:
