SOPA/PIPA-type laws are intended to blacklist foreign-hosted websites that infringe or purportedly infringe copyrights. If having your site cut off from the U.S. doesn't affect you, then you don't need to worry about those laws. But if it does effect you, then blocking U.S. visitors yourself is essentially doing the exact same thing. So what would that achieve? | |
