Facebook and Google (or YouTube) might be the only other internet powerhouses with enough traction to successfully pull something like this off. I hope they take a stand. It is an awful bill with awful consequences.
I can't say I'd mind youtube getting shut down for a day...
It'd be comical though when a study puts a value to the U.S. productivity increase when youtube videos are an inaccessible distraction.
Some of those videos have sucked up millions of man-hours of viewing... if even a single digit percent of those views were by workers procrastinating, we're talking millions in lost productivity. (Per clip!)
