Not SOPA exactly, but certainly SOPA-esque.

December 6, 2011 In Blog, Internet By Alexander Bussey

Not SOPA exactly, but certainly SOPA-esque.

A U.S. judge has ordered that hundreds of sites be de-indexed from Google, Facebook, and other websites. Even though SOPA is still just an unpopular bill in Congress, U.S. courts are attempting to enforce SOPA-esque remedies against websites that sell counterfeit goods regardless of jurisdiction and territoriality concerns. Why wait for SOPA?
