I tried defending it on Hacker News and received a dozen downvotes. Don't be surprised if everyone in an echo chamber agrees.


In your previous comment you essentially said: "I just don't believe the US government wants to shut down Reddit, Wikipedia, YouTube, and all of the other major sites". Aside from avoiding the main issue, that's hardly a "defence". It's just a statement of disbelief.


Do you have some links to your posts? I have seen people defend the concept of being able to go after sites that exist solely to profit of others work, but most of those disagree with the methods SOPA employs.
