Another option kn0thing: SOPA poses a serious threat to freedom on the internet.
When an internet company like Reddit, HN or Facebook gives its users the freedom to post content, it gives its users the freedom to post anything they like. SOPA introduces the fear that a user might post something illegally. If SOPA passes, web companies could be forced to disallow user freedom altogether.
Invaluable resources like Wikipedia have been created by allowing user freedom. Who knows what incredible resources user freedom could lead to in the future?
By persecuting companies when its users post copyrighted content, SOPA threatens freedom on the internet.
