I am now withdrawing my support for Rick Santorum.

If he supports this, he is a dangerous man.

This is very dangerous. I read posts from some Freepers who like Santorum and seemed to think the law was just fine, and on top of that believed it was directed at things like on-line stalking, fraud, crime, etc.

It has nothing to do with that; there are already existing laws that deal with all forms of Internet crime and abuse.

SOPA gets its initial push from copyright law (although anti-piracy laws already exist to protect intellectual property) and will end up suppressing the free exchange of information and ideas and give the government enormous power.

Yeah, you go ahead.

I saw the clip, and he never said that they had to be *governmental* regulations.

Try doing some research next time.

I’ve just drawn a line through his name. I could easily imagine Newt supporting this as well, and I wonder where he actually stands on the issue. Now this would be a question worth asking at one of these mostly worthless debates.

I think could trust either Paul or Perry to leave the internet alone.
