Here's Smith's newest brilliant idea:
Protecting Children From Internet Pornographers Act of 2011.
http://www.slashgear.com/sopa-sponsor-h ... -20210264/Senator Lamar Smith, lead sponsor of the currently dead SOPA bill you’ve heard so much about, has another bill in the works that uses Child Pornography as a screen to push through an amendment that’ll have your internet service provider tracking all of your financial dealings online. Each time you use a credit card, each time you read your bank statement, all of your IP information and your search history will be required by your ISP to be stored for 18 months at all times.
You know what to do, Internet.

I can not believe how influential lobbys are in the U.S.
Something like SOPA/PIPA could never ever be passed in Europe.

I'm a little afraid actually. This Bill has a much bigger chance due to it's deceptive name. I can somehow imagine that if it passes in America, Europe will shortly follow
