SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act) were two proposed laws in the United States aimed at combating online piracy and protecting intellectual property rights. Both bills focused on "foreign rogue websites" that facilitated piracy, such as The Pirate Bay and WikiLeaks. The main goal of SOPA and PIPA was to prevent online piracy by allowing the Department of Justice to block access to websites deemed "dedicated to infringing activities." However, critics argued that the bills would lead to censorship, undermine free speech, and harm the internet's infrastructure . Some of the key concerns surrounding SOPA and PIPA included: Censorship: The bills would have allowed the government to block access to websites without due process. Overreach: The language of the bills was considered too broad, potentially targeting legitimate websites and online services. Technical issues: The bills' proposals for DNS filtering and blocking were deemed technically flawed and potentially harmful to the internet's stability. In response to widespread protests and opposition from the tech community, SOPA and PIPA were ultimately shelved in 2012 .
