This stuff gets talked about constantly, it seems a little too bold to actually pass. Basically the purpose of this law would in large part be to find a way to prevent foreign websites from being accessed by Americans. Because simply shutting down American based piraters is worthless, as there are enough of these popular websites overseas that it would barely make a dent. In fact the foreign market for pirating would thrive and become bigger than ever. I don't see how they get this passed, I'm sure there's a large group of people that want it to happen, but it's something that sounds impossible to implement. There are already laws in place to shut down websites, but this seems more of the trying to throw a glass dome over the internet approach.
