Aside from SOPA..

This is absolutely disgusting. Why aren't these networks locked down that prevents the use of bittorrent, and surfing to these websites?

My point exactly. Some companies have corporate firewalls/proxies configured so that they block web-based e-mail sites and social networking sites, let alone P2P traffic and piracy-related sites.

We had an incident in the company where I work for about 5 years ago. Some newbie came in on his first day and the company was taking their sweet time providing him with a workstation. He was very eager to start working ASAP, so he plugged in his personal laptop. He didn't realize that he had eDonkey configured to start with Windows, so as soon as he plugged in, his machine started sending traffic on those ports commonly used by eD2k. Corporate IT guys picked up on it pretty quickly, within 10 minutes they shut his port and had security escort him out of the building, never to be seen or heard from again.

That's a good question, I know when I ran an office, I shut down just about everything except HTTP/S and FTP/S and depending on the needs would open other ports.

It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?
