The part here about not hiring anyone who has worked on SOPA-compliance software feels a bit absurd to me, unless you take the same line with every personal belief. Does that mean you should never hire any engineers that have worked on software for a predator drone? Or even just things that annoy you like telemarketing call center systems? I use that example because I'm guilty of it myself at my first programming gig. I'm against this bill as much as most are on here, but I think we need to be realistic about people's need to feed themselves and even the percentage of computer programmers that would qualify as the hacker types who would even give a rats ass (I don't know too many personally).
