i know there are other opponents, who think freedom will die on the web. I'm just not convinced this is the case. The law requires an act of the attorney general to initiate a closing.

Its very difficult to get the AG to do things. This is a key reason porn continues to be free in the face of efforts from republicans. AG has limited resources, higher priorities.

Its hard to forecast, should this law pass in any form, how many resources the DOJ would put behind its enforcement. The executive can completely ignore a law if it chooses to.

My own thinking is that the law will mainly benefit only the biggest entertainment companies. Small fish like me wont have the money to make the AG work on my behalf to shut down anything.
