https://ipwatchdog.com/2025/07/30/bipartisan-bill-allow-courts-compel-isp-blocking-foreign-piracy-sites/id=190792/

>Today, Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC), Chris Coons (D-DE), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Adam Schiff (D-CA) introduced a bipartisan bill titled “Block Bad Electronic Art and Recording Distributors Act of 2025’’(the Block BEARD Act). The proposal is aimed at blocking foreign websites dedicated to piracy from making stolen content available to U.S. users.

>Under the Block BEARD Act, copyright owners would be empowered to ask courts to designate foreign online websites as a “foreign digital piracy site.” Rights holders must prove they are the owner or exclusive licensee of the right; that they have been or will be injured by the infringing activity; that they’ve made an effort to provide notice to the operator of the foreign site; and that they’ve made an effort to determine that the site is not located within the United States. Petitioners also must show that the foreign online site is primarily dedicated to infringing activity; has limited commercial purpose beyond infringement; and is intentionally marketed to promote infringement.

this year sucks

If those politicians have one regret, it's that they gave us a taste of freedom.

>>106094063 (OP)
these guys rape kids and they wanna go after NEETs downloading movies for free

>>106094063 (OP)
Yet another restriction that can be solved with a VPN(which anyone pirating should already be using). How many years do you think we have left until they are deemed enemy number 1 and eventually fully outlawed? 2-3 years?

>>106094122
And they make it impossible to get a job to begin with.

It's been like this for years in the UK. They even got Cloudflare to block UK ips.

Still waiting to see of OFCOM bans 4chan then we are really screwed.

Politicians are going to be turned into christmas decorations

>>106094122
NEETS (unemployed "youth") also rape kids

>legitimate speech
Are people really going to go along with that after all the shit the government, tech, and media companies pulled during the pandemic?

just host piracy sites in the US then but the actual data is stored somewhere else? simple as

>>106095493
youll get v& that way

>>106095794
depends on the definition of "american site", is it about where the operator lives or where the server for the homepage is hosted?

Adam Shit is in a rigged district, he cannot be voted out.

>>106095368
I vote libertarian in every race they’re present in.

>>106094063 (OP)
land of the free, home of the brave.
this is literally extraterritorial law. remember this when some amerifat complains about "corrupt foreign shitholes" and stuff like that.
also remember this when some random amerimutt claims to "hate their government".

>>106095885
Schiff is a Senator now, there's no district involved. This is a Senate bill.

>>106095368
Both parties have large numbers of elected members that support this garbage.

Torrents will be safe because the search sites host nothing illegal themselves and knowing where copyrighted content is located is not illegal. The pirate bay went through this and they are still up because they don’t host anything illegal.

Once government issued digital id is required for like a second version of the internet(slow transition and the version now will always exist for national security and base needs) it will be over. Most major services will migrate over and hardware will have digital id primitives built in, this stuff will take many many decades but things will only get worse.

>>106095368
yeah let me just vote for the pro-piracy, anti-censorship, anti-surveillance party

>>106094063 (OP)
It's worthless to Faceberg and co now - they've downloaded everything on it already and faced no repercussions whatsoever.
But YOU? No. All that knowledge in YOUR hands is... uh... too dangerous. Besides, it's illegal. Think of the starving authors.

>>106094102
there were a few months when white collar workers had high mobility and were able to make demands, during the COVID WFH era, and the elites have been terrified that that could ever happen again. They saw regular people get a tiny taste of freedom and wages actually outpaced inflation for a few months, and it made them SEETHE like nothing else. This isn't a conspiracy theory, they've openly admitted they can't let anything like that happen ever again.

>>10609406
I already have Republicans fatigue.

i am sure voting will change things, two more elections, trust the plan

Good luck getting him voted out retard, the point is they always "find" enough votes.

>>106096057
Well, I hope being able to say "retard" and "faggot" again was worth it

>>106096060
if you honestly think there will be no way around digital id on the internet I've got some old DVDs to sell you at $100 apiece

It really isn't a drill this time huh. The entire 'legal' corporate internet will be locked down, tightly regulated and censored and under 24/7 AI-assisted surveillance. You will not be able to access it without attaching your real ID to it. Every single thing you do on there will be tied to your real identity and constantly tracked. And anything outside of this prison-web will be blocked at the ISP level. VPNs will be banned, of course. To 'protect the children'. This is it, total digital censorship and totalitarian control enforced by every country simultaneously. The schizos were right all along. I kneel.

The only thing that gets bipartisan support is fucking you in the ass.

>>106094174
They couldn't really outlaw VPNs without outlaw communicating with foreign servers. You can rent a low end VPS in a foreign company for the cost of a VPN and set up wireguard yourself. If you can figure out how to connect to a third-party VPN you should be able to set up one yourself

>>106096615
It does. You don't have to send a selfie to Governor Hotwheels to watch porn in CA, unlike Tejas. You can say that midwit "both parties are le same" crap but they clearly have different priorities.

>>106096641
Same endgoal they just take freedom away in a different order

what's the legality of website that lists the home addresses of elected officials and executives?

>>106096572
We're fighting back and we're winning.

>>106096673
Must be legal if my municipalities tax website lets you type in anyone's last name and it displays their full address provided their name is on the title of the home. Pretty dumb if you ask me.

>>106096641
NTA. It does but it doesn't. Democrats are just more subtle about it. Republicans are retarded christgolem boomers, and Anglos being the natural slave race that they are couldn't wait for their tech dystopia.
If Democrats were in power this would have happened more slowly and the EU and the Commonwealth would have been on the same page. I think one country started the censorship spree, forcing the hand of every other country because it would have to be all at once.
It's a funny thought that they may have did this too suddenly so they could be fucked for a long time if it doesn't go to plan. The frogs jumping out of the pot before the water was brought to boil.

>>106095368

I voted for Kamala but you can't say this particular issue would change if people voted the other way. These sorts of bills have been bipartisan all the way back to SOPA. The government is unified in attempting to fuck the little guy pirate in the ass.

>>106096800
Learn to read and think
>the EU and the Commonwealth would have been on the same page
Trump spent his entire campaign and term antagonizing Europe. Britian acted on its own and forced the others to act because otherwise it would give people a chance to prepare when the information lockdown spreads outside of Britian.

>>106094063 (OP)
ISPs have been blocking piracy related sites (and others) where I live for as long as I can remember.
Me and every one of my friends could figure out how to get around this before we were 12.

>>106096789
Great idea if you want a visit from the party van.

Several libgen mirrors are already down.
AA is slow af.

Is miss the good old days of gigapedia.

Fucking kike scums.

>>106095794
for what?

Um... I don't know why IPS's don't block swatchseries?
Like, it's obviously piracy, it doesn't even feel good pirate in plain text, it feels like youtube slop. piracy feels better if I need to go through some hoops and put a VPN on.

Cloudfaggots cannot comprehend this statement.

>>106097730
Yes. It’s in the back of everybody’s mind and has been for decades but in the end nobody will actually do it. Not until the food stops.

>>106095368
all voting has ever done is make people hate each other for what color they like, and it has been very effective at it, showcasing how stupid humanity actually is
and if voting actually changed things, it would be outlawed...

>>106096572
>The schizos were right all along. I kneel.
The next level is realizing we haven't been bullshitting about lucid dreaming and astral traveling. Its the last frontier and realm of communication free from societal control. If they could censor or make dreams illegal, they would.

oh this is finally hitting yankland, it's been blocked for years already in europe, and she stopped uploading in 2022 because of fucking india

it's only about 80TB to backup all of sci-hub there's lot of torrents for it too even if you can't hoard it all it's good to at least have a chunk downloaded for preservation

>>106094063 (OP)
Good damn it it's all happening so fast now. Where are the archives? I bought 20TB of storage space to hoard data like fucking crazy while I still can. I know that's not nearly enough but it's what I can afford right now and I'm running out of time

>>106098688
Good luck

>>106095368
This is literally sponsored by a fucking democrat.

What the fuck can they do that VPNs can't get around

>>106099899
they will start blocking vpn

Only 78? Damn. I could afford that, if I buy enough hard disks for a few thousand. Or maybe $2000 would be enough.

>>106104387
Well, only the non fiction books. There are libgen magazines, there is also z-library, sci hub, annas-archive. Only some are in english, others are in german/russian/chinese/french. Many are duplicated between them. It's all a mess that goes to 1 PB, they can be trimmed down, but you a lot of work for that.

Nigger did you really think having your collection being tied to internet was ever a good idea?

>>106096636
Yes they can they can block payment processing to non compliant VPN services easily. Anyway no one seeds torrents anymore because no one has physical media to rip

>>106112200
There were people discussing eactly this and how advances in packet snffing was going to result in internet backbone filtering of putlockers and torrents etc. I could have bought a 3000 blue ray/dvd PS2/360/PC disk collection off someone a six years ago for peanuts. Bugger
