"So it would seem that DOPA is a done deal. Of course, there’s no way to predict what’ll happen in the future, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s another surge of media coverage surrounding kids and online safety. The question is whether the new Democrat leaders of Congress would look at the resulting public polling data and decide to enact their own DOPA-like legislation. It’s certainly possible, but given the leadership roles that’ll be played by members like Markey, Dingell and Leahy, any new legislation would probably go through a much more thorough examination than DOPA ever did."
