QUOTE:  The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), and the PROTECT-IP Act, known as PIPA, have both been postponed from being voted on in the House and Senate respectively.  An impending vote on SOPA triggered widespread protests leaving hundreds of millions of Web users without access to their favourite sites. Though both bills have been shelved, both SOPA and PIPA are far from dead. What is clear, however, is that the bills will not return in their current form.
