will the PIPA and SOPA effect the Linux and GNU free software community


because free sites that offer their services for free such as facebook (which is facing some attention from this biil because members have been known to post copyrighted content found on youtube and such) i am not in favor of this bill but also don't understand it's relationship to licensing agreements regarding software weather it be free or closed source freeware. i'm sure that clever politions would find a way to damage the philosophy of the Linux Community
