can someone just tell me whats the sopa doing, that ppl are against it?

Just go against it man. Soon, the whole network would be shut down.

Why freaking out! O_O

There are many other possibilities:
Wupload - Zippyshare - Mediafire - ifile

I think they are just trying to scare the filehosting companies, on the hope that they would inspect everything being uploaded to the servers, which is Impossible.

I left 1 Megaporn video unwatched  >

can someone just tell me whats the sopa doing, that ppl are against it?

making it so you can't view sites that contain illegal software(ie: movie downloads, cd downloads, and all those other cool things you like that are certainly illegal)

[JackMonroe]

"According to the indictment, the popular file-sharing system is responsible for $500 million in losses to copyright"

This is the most bullshit number in the world.  If people were going to buy your shit, they would buy your shit.

Dammit hope they don't get killing Facebook. The list of companies supporting SOPA.

List of Shit on SOPA

  All over the world. Inc

to be honest i dont even know what sopa means, or what this group do..

[henry]

SOPA = Stop Online Piracy Act, it isn't a group of people, it's a bill that the United States Senate is trying to pass so that you can no longer download anything illegal on the internet(it effects everyone in the world, not just the U.S.)
