Well, there's a good question. I'd say that in all likelihood, no. One look at the list of (very powerful) internet companies opposing the bill, not to mention to public appeal against it makes it a dangerous move for the US to take. But there are a scary amount of politicians supporting it as well, and if there's one thing that groups like the RIAA are good at it's casting their humanity aside in favour of deepening their pockets even further. I think there is a small chance that this bill might go through, or its younger sister which is nearly as bad will be passed in the wake of it. That's not a risk I'm willing to take, at all, which is why I started this thread.
