At least the bill preventing internet piracy was denied.

Please get informed. These bills are not about internet piracy.They are about huge corporations trying to control the entire flow of the internet.

Just do a simple google search for the insane free speech restrictions to be expected if any of them pass. And lets not forget that poor third world countries will have to pay fifty times or more for medicine, because of patent restrictions. This is nothing but major corporations wanting even more than they already have.
