Of course I oppose copyright infringement, but

What if they want to silence a website, domain, blog, post, video, etc. for revealing an ugly truth.
What prevents them from uploading (even if it requires hacking) copyrighted material and them shutting down the website, domain, blog, post, video, etc. on excuses that it violates copyright.

It would be the 21st century version of inquisition or police planting drugs on suspects they want jailed.|||SOPA would only kick in if the website failed to make a good faith effort to remove the material.

So sites like Facebook and Youtube would be unaffected because those sites both have a system in place that allows copyright owners to report content for removal.|||It could be done easily enough sadly. There is only so much that the larger sites such as MySpace, Youtube, Google Plus, Facebook, and other equally large sites can do even in good faith, before the authorities could decide that the measures, that they have in place, aren't effective in combating the problem. It's there that SOPA shows it flaws. Accounts can be created quickly enough, that keeping up with say one thousand people creating accounts is material regarding pirated material or how to pirate things would overwhelm the site. For new smaller start ups it would easily overwhelm them in just a few hours time, and they wouldn't have the staff, or the money, to combat it. Mainly because there would be no way to be sure that every page was taken down, that the material could be found on.|||big companies wont have that problem because of the amount of funds at there disposal but new company's can be got rid of vary easily because of this problem|||Basically, nothing.

The problem is, it's simply something they don't have to try very hard at. If your site so much as links to copyrighted material, they'll have your head on a silver platter.

They already have some dude in the U.K facing such charges.

Website owner is registered and much easier to trace, authorities might claim it is not economically viable to trace users
