Its the potential destructive power that SOPA and PIPA represent, as they are worded now, they can easily be abused by larger corporations and government. If someone posted Keith's entire catalog of standup on Youtube, under the new laws, Keith would still need a team of lawyers and millions of dollars to shut down Youtube for the period of time necessary to get the materials off. Basically the government could find loop-holes in the new law to shut down certain sites especially smaller sites that have little or no financing to defend themselves. SOPA AND PIPA need to be better defined before being made into laws as to not be abused. They also do not give more power to starving artist to protect their own intellectual properties.

Also about the poll, SOPA and PIPA won't "destroy" the internet but it will drastically change the landscape and potentially take a lot of "freedoms" away from the end user.
