Why should these foriegners be making millions from illegal downloading while the american entertainment industry is losing millions??

I feel like they are stealing from America.

They do have a point, but, they're going about it in the totally wrong day. Megaupload was taken down under current law - and maybe they deserved it, they did little to curtail people uploading cracked games, pirated songs or movies or books. Through SOPA/PIPA/ACTA websites like Youtube would face being taken down, even though they take measures to prevent copyrighted material.

Also, America doesn't rule the world, I found the way that countries around the world extradited their citizens to America disturbing. America is slowly becoming the land of the greedy. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against you American's, it your government who are out of order.
