Oh, okay. I was worried because this site hosts a lot of copy write material (even if its "fan-made" videos) and they might want all this music and anime down. Just wouldn't want the owner to be stuck with the fall so to speak =3

I guess part of it would be the way one chooses to define 'capitalism'. It's certainly anti-laissez-faire, but laissez-faire is just one type (the problem, however, is that its proponents like to act like they're the only type, and anyone that disagrees with them is therefore automatically anti-capitalist). Some of the other marginalized variants (distributism, at the very least) naturally share in the opposition to crap like SOPA/PIPA.

Polish government is lying - thay said today everyone in the EU have signed only we not (but it looks like we want sign first), they said that we can add clauses after sign (and other eurodeputy said that each country must sign in unmodified version) they said that acta nothing changes in Polish law (and changed almost everything about free voice)
They said that they will sign ACTA tomorrow despite all protests
ACTA was prepared in secret in 4 years .... In what country I was born ... (facepalm)
