  • It seems that one implication of PIPA and SOPA would be that Astaro would be compelled to eliminate the capability here to upload images and supply external links - either that or shut the User BB off completely to avoid liability.  I realize that might sound a bit paranoid, but, in any case, I've already sent emails to my US Rep and two Senators.

  • It has some other side affects eg countries that have trade agreements with the US are stuck and also have to implement the policy.

    Does this mean another DNS structure outside of US control or influence, I think so and countries like China, Russia, Iran etc will already be working on it. Also the the US bill only applies to English DNS entries, maybe....
