Re:Go Daddy No Longer Supports SOPA by nkoren on Friday December 23, 2011 @04:32PM (#3387340)
I haven't actually read the text of SOPA, but I have this amusing fantasy of Anonymous having planted a congressional staffer to do a global search-and-replace through the entire law. Then, when it passes, the following can occur:

EvilMegaCorp : Remove this rogue domain from your DNS immediately.

DNS : Sorry, we're not going to do that.

EvilMegaCorp : But you are legally required to, per SOPA!

DNS : Actually, SOPA only requires us to de-link rouge websites. The Engrish-branded knockoff Asian cosmetics industry has really been decimated by this.

EvilMegaCorp : << explodes in a fit of pique >>

Sigh. A nerd can dream...
