International Intellectual Property Protection and Enforcement Act of 2008

Given the recent developments as far as internet related law in the US, this is again going to push a lot of people to start hosting in Europe. I've heard from a friend that works at a relatively big hoster in the Netherlands that they've already had about 10 inquiries from US customers, which has never happened before.

As far as that goes, it's a really bad development because it's pushing away innovation and technology, and not really helping it

Even if this legislation has passed the Senate, it still has a long way to go before it ever becomes a law.

It's going to be interesting to see how it plays out...

elKabong And Lord, we are especially thankful for nuclear power, the cleanest, safest energy source there is. Except for solar, which is just a pipe dream Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Kansas City Posts: 225	Even if this legislation has passed the Senate, it still has a long way to go before it ever becomes a law.
