It's interesting that by threatening to attack both DNS records and payment processing without a trial or judicial review, everyone has jumped on board the "compromise" that they are willing to accept payment processing take downs of free speech sites without judicial review as long as the DNS records can be saved. Which were never a real issue anyway since you can just switch to offshore DNS servers, or switch to raw ip addresses as most of us did when wikileaks.org was taken out.

It seems to me this has been the goal since the beginning. If the bill was only about attacking the finances of sites, the discussion here would have been about how this is an attack on free speech. By bundling it with another issue to be given up as a token sacrifice, a goal they weren't even really interested in to begin with, they are able to get the public to support and even advocate their original goal, which otherwise few would have been in favor of.
