| Mr Khan said: It is odd that this didn't get the uproar that SOPA and PIPA did. The internet did such a good job at mobilizing people before, but i suppose congress can just crank out law after law like that, especially if they have bipartisan support. Travel difficulties meant i couldn't vote in the democratic primary against my senator who was in support of PIPA, I don't doubt where he'll side on this <_> |
I'd attribute most of it to the fact that large companies like Wikimedia, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft were against SOPA. Most companies are fine with CISPA, even Darrell Issa voted to pass it >:3
The SOPA/PIPA protest would have been nothing without the backing of Google and Wikimedia.
