I'd sign this just to be safe about it.

I'm curious, how many times have they tried to make this a thing? Three times...?

I'm really not sure why they are still trying to make this go through. They tried a million times and was petitioned out of it. I don't know, after the second, maybe third time, at least one person involved with it would think, "Hmm, I don't actually think the people want this to pass."

The whole thing just pisses me off. :l

Just signed. Agreed with Sonic100000 by the way.

Typically I leave these things alone.
But this directly affects us.

Making this an announcement sticky because apparently I can't make announcements?

This is nothing more than a rumor that's been spreading like crazy and it doesn't even have a source.

Please everyone do yourselves a favor and read this: http://fyeahcopyright.tumblr.com/post/59301764566/sopa-is-not-back

That's not a counterpoint, it concurs with what Klinx said: Nobody in the government or congress is currently bringing back or trying to bring back SOPA. There's nothing to "end" here, and I don't see why I should sign a petition to ask the government to stop something it isn't even doing.

Especially when you don't even live in the country or are a citizen of the government in the first place.
