Do you remember the bullshit that was once #SOPA and #PIPA? Well, apparently Congress likes raising terrible ideas from the grave. It's the same idea under a different wrapper: allow rights holders to shut down sites they don't like under the guise of copyright infringement.

It's called the Federal Anti-Digital Priacy Act - #FADPA. It's disguised as an anti-piracy bill, but the power underlying this bill means only one thing: an internet kill switch, a global blacklist.

It's censorship, full stop.

"More than a decade ago, Congress tried to pass SOPA and PIPA—two sweeping bills that would have allowed the government and copyright holders to quickly shut down entire websites based on allegations of piracy. The backlash was immediate and massive. Internet users, free speech advocates, and tech companies flooded lawmakers with protests, culminating in an “Internet Blackout” on January 18, 2012. Turns out, Americans don’t like government-run internet blacklists. The bills were ultimately shelved.

Thirteen years later, as institutional memory fades and appetite for opposition wanes, members of Congress in both parties are ready to try this again.

The Foreign Anti-Digital Piracy Act (FADPA), along with at least one other bill still in draft form, would revive this reckless strategy. These new proposals would let rights holders get federal court orders forcing ISPs and DNS providers to block entire websites based on accusations of infringing copyright. Lawmakers claim they’re targeting “pirate” sites—but what they’re really doing is building an internet kill switch.

These bills are an unequivocal and serious threat to a free and open internet. EFF and our supporters are going to fight back against them."

I found this #BC Supreme Court ruling on #ClearviewAI absolutely delicious, especially the findings that the #PIPA Personal Information Protection Act applies to out-of-province companies with a “real and substantial” connection to BC and that the act of processing personal information from people in BC from the internet is sufficient to form that connection #ai #privacy blg.com/en/insights/2025/03/co

There are stirrings of U.S. bill
H.R. 791,
Foreign Anti-Digital Piracy Act (FADPA)
which may be a reboot of SOPA and PIPA.

This would likely affect a lot of the internet, and would enable broad censorship without recourse in service to large corporate interests.

Please kill terrible corporate censorship policies for the sake of internet freedom and stuff.

EFF says stuff about this, but I don't like to link sites that run bad scripts.

A proposed bill aims to bring site blocking to the United States. But, 13 years after SOPA/PIPA, how is this bill different?
