[pp.int.general] Will you start to raise awareness over SOPA?

[Marko Mitrovic]

We are all very well aware of SOPA and consequences.

IMO, USA are lost cause. They have gone to path with no return, and
it's up to rest of the world to distance themselves from falling
empire. I think that after turbulent start of SOPA, many of the
infrastructure and companies will simply migrate from US, degrading
them to Chinese level at best.
