Whatever happened to S.97


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

No, I think that is a pretty accurate statement. All they hear is the movie industry saying "A few people are stealing our movies online, we're only making 99 million dollar profits, not 100 million dollar profits."
Therefore, they will attempt to cause havoc shutting down huge sites because one andom person posted links for copyrighted material.
Is s.97 PIPA or something?

Re: SOPA/PIPA Official Topic

If S.O.P.A. passes, probably over half of the projects on scratch will be censored. Then a lot of users would quit. It would cause mass confusion.

Also, who proposed this bill that is brave enough to stand up to all these corporate/social media giants like Google, Facebook, Twitter, Minecraft, YouTube, etc.  Who would be that stupid? They're going to make everybody hate them for killing their favorite websites.

I don't think that would sit well with some people.
Sure, protests on the forums are onething, while and SDS is a completely different matter.
