Protect IP is the one that's looking like it will pass. In its initial iteration Pat Leahy has suggested removing his initial punishment for unlicensed websites, which was shutting them down, like SOPA, to have it replaced by a milder "blocking all US access to the site." of course, if passed they will immediately go about trying to add back in the SOPA provision.

there are about a half dozen of these bills circulating, and this one has the support of the democrats and enough commie republicans to pass. (face it, this policy is copied directly from China's great firewall, and every business on the internet is in opposition.)

I guess that leaves two options: set up an alt internet, or flee the country, any suggestions?

That's what a ship is, you know - it's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs.
