Has any one seen this yet? blink.gif

A bill may pass through the the USA's congress to lock down and sue websites that breach copyright laws, like youtube, sound cloud and the like...
The bill is mostly there to support big corporations [of course], to make people watch and listen to their produce rather than through other means.

It is daft, and it will shut sites like us down...

What I don't understand is how the US government thinks it can control sites that are based outside the country. Isn't that invasive?
