    Internet Pioneers, Security Experts Send Letter Blasting SOPA


    Posted: 18 Dec 2011
    A group of engineers, networking specialists, security experts and other specialists deeply involved with the Internet's development and growth have sent a letter to lawmakers criticizing the highly controversial SOPA and PIPA bills and imploring them not to pass the legislation, which they say would stifle innovation and "threaten engineers who build Internet systems or offer services that are not readily and automatically compliant with censorship actions by the U.S. government."

    While I highly applaud them for the letter, and believe that they are correct, in as far as they go about the effect that it would have on the industry, I'm more concerned about what effect that it would have on us peons.

    Other countries should setup their own DNS system.
    They could then "pull the plug" on the US, to protect it from all of the "evil pirates".
