You're a bit late. The Stop Online Piracy Act was recently shelved, it's no longer under consideration. However, the PROTECT IP Act (PIPA), which is basically the Senate's version of it, is still on the table, though even that is now undergoing heavy editing. In other words, while this is still an important issue since it shows the government is taking a frightening stand on Internet censorship, it's not quite the pressing issue anymore that you're making it out to be.
