The act has lost tons of supporters during the past week, so who knows,

We can always hope so. From what I read about the bill it didn't look as though there was any research put into how the internet actually works, so my guess is that they've been told to come up with something that actually makes sense and won't break the intarwebs.

Look's like the MPAA is having a bit of a hissy fit about it being shelved.

Apparently Chris Dodd is basically going "Pass this bill or we won't give you money anymore."

Nope, CT just needs to wake up and vote him out.

Lifelong politicians is 60% of our current problem.

CT?

You there? This man (John "Chris" Dodd) is a lizard-person.

And a disgrace to the name Chris.
