Quote - my guess is that, since the american president came out against it, it can't become law.  poser sites would mostly be affected by blue laws, but as in the case of computer-generated kiddie porn (COPA), we've seen that these laws can be struck down, if enacted. IIRC this site (and possibly other poser sites) already have a rule that those posting images here do so under the condition that they allege or aver that they own copyright. I ain't a lawyer.

If enacted, your avatar is the first to go. :p

All of the celebrity look-a-like morphs that are being sold can be categorized as infringement of copyright material (hello Tomb Raider character and outfit), all of the sci-fi sets that look like the Enterprise bridge or space stations, not to mention the amount of money in damages and liablility this and other sites will face by selling that stuff.

SOPA and PIPA are monstrous and terrible things that should never see the light of day.

Anyone who doesn't fully understand what SOPA and PIPA are actually purposing, please for the sake of anyone who has ever used the internet, read up and send a message to your state representative.
