This entire proposed law makes me wonder about something. How are they
going to enforce this outside of the US? I can just see the RIAA sending a
DoS attack on another country's site. What about countries that are not
friendly with the US or do not have agreements in this area? I can hear it
now "Sorry about flooding your connections with an attack. It was to stop
your citizens from copying music not an actual attack against you". I
wonder if a country's national song could be considered IP and then DoS if
sent out.
