My personal opinion that SOPA (Stop On line privacy Act) imposes
additional rules and restrictions on using the internet. This rule may
benefit some big companies. In my view it will be detrimental to innovation and creativity. Original intention of copyright and the internet is to encourage creativity and innovation. By enacting this law, a few big organizations may get wealthy (as against the artists and content creators.)

It is worthwhile to read and to educate ourselves what is at stake.
