The exaggerated effects of this act in anime... is probably on "Loli fans" and "highschool" themed animes....

It isn't just even lolicon fans that are collateral damage, its bad for anyone who uses the internet.

It presents a huge threat to privacy and freedom for everyone.

is thre money to be made for forcing ISPs to keep records of their customer's activities?

if this ends up as just another expense and they can't profit from it, then imo it's just another classic move by .gov to place undue burden on ISPs!

expect major ISPs to lobby hard against this!

I think the worst thing about this new bill is internet privacy, and potential for blackmailing.

Dared to support the Occupation movement for example, and they will accuse you to be a pedophiles accomplishes, as you are caught talking with a schoolgirl rapist on the net about how adorable Shana-tan is how you want to 'take her home'. Or face terrorists charge if caught saying "Should just kill it with fire. Or blow it up"(about SOPA perhaps) in a political debate

Sheesh, these guys won't quit, will they? I wish someone would just nuke the government. :~

I said it before in one of the other threads. They will keep attempting to pass these things under different names, and Joe Public won't know the difference.

Oh this is just delish! USA never fails to make itself facepalm.

This is basically "Tokyo's Anime and Manga Ban" blown to epic proportions.... In the United States of America!

With both premise is to "protect children", I just hope US citizens won't fall for such an obvious ruse as the Japanese did.

is it just me or does seem like people when alone are intelligence and resourceful. In a group the collective iq decrease by factors of number of people in group. the bigger the group the dumber it becomes.

Not really: My subs come from torrents. I can DL GGs troll size subs(say 500mb) in 30 mins.
