A quote I took from an OMG article..
The author of the internet-censoring SOPA bill would be in violation if it were to pass! Lamar Smith is a congressman from Texas and the author of the Stop Online Piracy Bill. We've covered SOPA before (here, and here).
As you've probably heard, most internet companies are in an uproar about the restrictive nature of this legislation, which would put the US on par with the most restrictive regimens in the world when it comes to the internet.
The website Vice did some investigating, and they found that the congressman's website is using a photo without the consent of the man who took the photograph. This means that under the rules of SOPA, the photographer could order Internet service providers to block the congressman's website for violating his copyright!
We know we've been harping on this, but it's important that everyone recognizes how bad this legislation is for the average internet user.

..this is the very dangerous bloke of which we speak?...>>>
