This is the part that pisses me off the most. Until I can register a domain without having my freaking address out there for -everyone- to see, I'll keep registering with fake info. It's a stupid bill. A felony is not a reasonable punishment for sharing a piece of copyritten material. Certainly, it's illegal, but it should not be a federal felony. A felony is not a reasonable punishment for falsifying domain registration information. Think about it. There are far more serious crimes that carry less punishment. Sharing copywritten material is already a crime. This bill goes way too far.
