“There is nothing more dangerous than a resourceful idiot” – Scott Adams

Is it just me or is there a lot of whistle blowing about this thing called SOPA?  Until a couple of days ago SOPA was this amorphous, ambiguous acronym that carried relatively no meaning for me.  Then Wikipedia went dark.  Luckily I didn’t have any research that needed to be done or else there would have been real issues.  (Note: to all of my professors this is a joke).  So for those of you that were like me and don’t really know the implications of SOPA this blog is for you.  I will briefly outline the SOPA legislation and the main areas of contention within the bill.  Finally, I will attempt to explain the effect SOPA will have on you, the everyday Internet user, if it is enacted.
