I hate to break it to you, Apple, Microsoft and the rest: they're all essentially internet-based. If Apple doesn't care about the internet, they need to have a long, hard think about why people are buying their products. How many iPads are they going to sell when people can only access a crippled version of Facebook and Twitter is shut down? The technology industry as it is today exists almost exclusively because of the ubiquity of the internet. Companies whose products stand to suffer directly from SOPA are not the only tech companies that should be worried; any company whose profits are a result of the proliferation of the internet should be scared of SOPA. That's almost every single tech company out there.
