Anonymous will react if SOPA is passed

Hackers group Anonymous has said it will respond if the controversial Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) is passed into law in the US.

"SOPA tramples civil rights laws, fair use, freedom of press and freedom of speech. Under SOPA an average person could be arrested, fined, sued and spend time in a federal prison for so little as uploading a video to YouTube or even linking to one. This law further proves the reality of corporate rule and totalitarianism."

"In a democracy this should be enough to defeat the bill, however, in the U.S. it only means that the vote will get delayed until the media loses interest and the backing corporate lobbyists have enough time to 'influence' [read: bribe] the vote to their favour," they warn.
