    I think the whiteboard experience is very loosely correlated to programming ability and hope that the simple loop fiasco was an exaggeration. Many good programmers have a great dea…

    I think you are right in assuming that the buyer side of the market is not going to consist of developers. However, there is certainly a market here if the right people are targete…

    Good but the article should mention the outage last Thursday.

    No, while I think other websites with users who are less aware would benefit the cause by having a Stop SOPA message, explanation of the reason behind the blackout, and the blackou…

    Yes I agree that local cache is the way it will go, but I do not think think that SOPA will be a blessing in disguise. In fact, I think the internet will begin to more closely rese…

    You may be surprised about how challenging it may be for "anybody's mother". Anyway, DeSopa was a quick way to prove a point. I expect that if SOPA passes offshore DNS services wil…

    True, but not everyone who will be affected by SOPA is a hacker. After (and if) SOPA is passed, releasing this sort of program will be illegal. The point was to illustrate to congr…

    You can rename the extension to .zip and extract. If you have any problems, let me know via a comment or post a contact method and Ill send you the source. Its pretty simple. When …

    Yes, I agree. However at this point I am just hoping that it catches the attention of congressmen giving them another reason to rethink SOPA's feasibility before the vote

    Comment #3374840

    SOPA has not yet passed, it is not yet the law and I hope that Mozilla leaves it up for now. The DeSOPA program is meant to discourage passage of the bill by showing congress how e…
