Nintendo Wises Up
Morari:
...and withdraws their support for SOPA. Of course, this is probably just lip service. SOPA brings about bad press, and I'm sure Nintendo wants to distance themselves from it for that reason and that reason alone. Lest they end up like GoDaddy.
News Article
Regardless of what the article states, Sony is still onboard with the bill. Several of their subsidies can be found on the list. We already knew that Sony hates their customers though. :P
Edit: I didn't notice that this hit the main page of the site as well. Might be best to relegate discussion to that Talk Back thread.
TJ Spyke:
SOPA is a good bill, but you have people spreading misinformation about it. If you don't support illegal content, then you have nothing to worry about. I am disappointed that Nintendo caved in to pressure from criminal groups like Anonymous.
Brandogg:
SOPA is horse **** and I can't believe any end-user would ever even *consider* supporting something like it. You are completely wrong about the "don't support illegal content" it's not even funny.
TJ Spyke:
No I am not wrong. Read the bill, not just what opponents of it say.
bustin98:
The problem is it doesn't define what illegal content is, and places the fight in the courts, which ultimately means the deepest pockets wins. It takes free choice and free speech out of the end users hands and into the hands of a group of lawyers who will scourer the Internet looking for objectional material. There is no 'innocent before proven guilty'.
