Hi InternetStarter,

I have not personally read all the language in the bill but I doubt Adsense would be affected.

Would this effect Google Adsense?

Hi Mike and Billy, thanks for weighing in. I know it’s frustrating and sure hope the bill does not pass.

how ridiculous?!!
and i thought when ebay in 2008 made it their policy to stop people selling ebooks in digital format was ridiculous. This has certainly topped it.
even though i dont live in the states, we are seeing more and more knee jerk reactions to the economic crises. Policies that should not stick, if the people have their say

Tax on “digital downloads”! What a crock of sh*t.

Im looking at this bill and ill be damned if i ever vote for any of these morons again. I don’t care if they are democrats or republicans, a moron is a moron.

Of all the places to try and tax.. you think these affiliates are making a fortune off of digital downloads? Please… this subsidizes the crap nc salaries since we’ve lost our furniture and fiber production by pulling revenue from oversees and other states. I work in NC, and have lived in Raleigh. Someone asked why they don’t go after the banks instead? Raleigh is afraid to because they are in Charlotte the real capitol of North Carolina.

Spread the word… read the bill see who signs it and kick the morons out after their terms are up. We may not have the money to pay lobbyist to wine and dine these swine, but we can vote by golly.

Spread the word… take a stand.
