Quizplus · Accepted Answer

SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act) were proposed to prevent online piracy and protect copyright holders. These bills were aimed at giving the government and copyright owners more power to shut down websites hosting copyrighted content without permission. However, the bills were met with significant opposition from internet companies and free speech advocates who argued that the proposed legislation would lead to censorship and harm the free flow of information on the internet.
