I am against this ridiculous regulation. but you do know that this petition won't change a thing, right?
Politicians (including the all-powerful president of the US) are in the pockets of multis. Multis that you helped grow that powerful.
I don't really care if the US gets disconnected from the internet; there's not much value coming through the sockets from that direction anyway...

The petition will change a lot of people's views on the matter. Many people don't even know what SOPA means so there's informative value in the petition at least.

Governments are only in power because the people allow them to be. Who do you think staffs the military? If you think people in any country won't give a shit you're sadly mistaken. Americans aren't any different here either. Cross the line and watch a shit storm happen.

I think that the wikipedia blackout was more successful in getting the attention than a petition signed by 100k.

People say a lot of s**t when they are at home and feel safe. Once their house is burning, they shut up and do whatever the others are doing. That is called fear. A "substance" best controlled by the government; especially in the US.
