Nation specific political stuff should go in the off topic section.

I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

Unfortunately the rest of the world tends to follow the US' lead on stuff like this, with the notable exception of china which already has worse draconian control over the internets.

Signed. Sent a letter to congress already a couple weeks ago. I've read the bill and, frankly, it disturbs me that shit like that even gets voted on, much less passed.

Whoever thought this up, I'd happily send a bullet into his skull.

World is watching. Let's hope it get's stopped, it's more than just a "lol stop piracy" act..

Oh wait, if this passes, and they'll get total control of the internet overtime via EU copying US like always, will I get the Interpol knocking at my door, for typing such things?

Damnit.  :shock:

Yes, I remember every single country in the world passing their own versions of the Patriot Act after being attacked by terrorists. For my opinions on this:

[22:30] <Oberyn> man why the fuck is wiki down. I have no voice over in the US, I'm not a citizen, I don't give a flying shit about your fascist attempts at regulating the net
