The end of internet freedom seems getting closer. You have SOPA in USa, we have the SINDE law in Spain that has been approved and will start to be applied on March and it's similar to SOPA.

Basically the Gov can close any website when they want and before a lawsuit, not letting the website owner to defend himself unless he starts a lawsuit against the gov.

The question is... where does it end? Can't Google be closed for the same reason? If you search for illegal pics or videos in Google, they are found easily, so Google is providing access to those ilegal files too...

Megaupload was the pirates paradise but it was also legally used by a lot of users and companies to host and share their own files.

Imho goberments are using the copyright escuse to have the power to close any website when they want, the censorship made easy.

There are talks in different forums about the possible creation of an "alternative internet", with it's own DNS and proxy servers outside the govs control. By now just a simple idea, but technically possible.

About Anonymous actions, yeah they are just like terrorists trying to prove a gov that they are wrong, it does exactly the opposite.
