^"taken down" might not actually be the right words.

From what I understand, if this bill passes it would force Internet service providers to block the domain name of the offending website from their DNS servers. However, this doesn't mean that the site would be "taken down." Sites can continue to maintain there websites, but they will be more difficult to access. The block can be bypassed by typing in the websites IP address (for Theme Park Review, 98.142.209.220), and maybe even using a third party DNS server would bypass the block as well.

But, the idea behind the bill is wrong. It will suppress innovation, and harm an industry vital to our nation. The Internet brings in more money than the movie/music industry does.

IMO, the Stop Anti-Piracy/Protect IP acts are like me doing this -

They're pointless and will do more harm than good.
