Criminal activity is occurring on the internet in the form of copy-write piracy. The government is moving to attempt to stop it. I don't like what the government is proposing because it goes too far in some areas, but the bellyaching by Facebook and Twitter amounts to nothing more attempts to avoid having to actually police their sites against illegal activity. If the industry as a whole (content providers) would have done this willingly they would not be seeing attempted government intrusion now. However what they are trying to do instead is gin up fear in order to maintain their desired status quo. I have no sympathy for them.

@Tom Florentine You are incorrect. Please research SOPA and the IP Protect bills. These are what are currently being debated in the House and Senate.
