In a bold statement, Team Meat, creators of the fantastic platformer Super Meat Boy, told their 27,000 followers on Twitter that if the controversial SOPA passes, which has been delayed to the 21st of December due to lies, damn lies, and manipulation, then everyone should pirate everything by the companies pushing it through.
Companies that support the bill include Nintendo, Sony, and EA. Even though I don’t condone piracy, I refuse to see why I should give my business to anyone that seeks to have corporates have a say in politics or anything outside of their company buildings. A full list of the companies can be found on this PDF that was dug up by a Redditor.
What about you all? What are your opinions on SOPA? I’ll sure as Hell boycott but I wouldn’t pirate anything by them, it’ll just strengthen their case.

All the companies got caught sharing (“pirating”) movies and TV shows.. their response “someone spoofed our IP, it wasn’t us” if a civilian is caught those SAME companies will hunt you down, try to fine you and disconnect your internet. SOPA is just the worst bill no one benefits from it.
