EDIT: Example of what this bill means; Metkil's lets play of Amnesia: The Dark Descent would be considered illegal and he would face severe repercussions.

Lets not play anymore and watch them crash and burn.

Or we could all upload a gameplay video onto youtube. Id love to see the US Government jail us for that.

it wont pass... trust me, it will fuck many business up hella bad... basically the bill is saying (were gonna shut down certin buisnesses without actually going streight to them)... but it wont pass, it might come close though, but wont pass

If it does however, the following would be have to be forcefully removed from the internet:

-Video Game Gameplay
-Scenes from a movie
-Scenes from a TV Show
-Music
-Movie Trailers
-Game Trailers
-Show Trailers
-Music Videos
-Web Series's (IE: Rooster Teeth)

(i deleted the ones that dont have its Rights owners bitching...) all of the current listed are bitching, but if this bill were to pass, it will fuck them up hardcore... not just a little... but alot. And they know it, however they think they can solve it, but they cant, it eventually comes down to samples on the internet... also i read further into it, not only will youtube and other places get fucked, but ITunes can also (they have sample videos and music avalible, that would bring an infraction into that bill... sure they will have the rights, but still they can get in trouble for it)

Let the riots begin.

Let the riots begin.

this. the best parts of the internet would be shut down. i'm pretty sure like half of the internet would disappear.

/obvious overestimation

Well, Rooster Teeth specifically wouldn't because they have rights.

I can't imagine such a skullfuck actually happening, so I don't think it'll pass, but I signed the petition

[silversleek(GEN)]

if it would pass, they would just be lucky i don't live in america. i would rip every senator that looked in it's direction without complaint in half. not that it will.
