joker, what is all about sopa, what will it do if they succeed in senate? i heard that google and wikipedia will be shut down, explain please!

SOPA =

S top
O nline
P iracy
A ct

basically, what this does is say you go to google and search for say "Adobe Photoshop CS5 download" and you find a site that has a legit copy, what SOPA does is makes it so that site you found via google is blacked out and you can no longer access it, also if this site is advertising going to said site to download more illegal software(like most people do, ie; bb-warez.org) it will also black out those sites as well, PIPA on the other hand will make it so google completely removes that legit link from its search engine that you found so you can't share it anywhere via the internet.
