It will affect your country, because you will go to sites that are registered in the United States, which the US Government can and will shut down using SOPA. ANYTHING ON ANY WEBSITE in the United States that is infringing copyright will cause the gov't to shut the entire site down. For example, if something was on this site that infringed copyright, the government would shut it down. Then, there would be no more plugins distributed freely unless we made a new website.
And no, we aren't giving them exactly what they want. They don't WANT to shut down the entire internet, but they think that their stupid bill is going to stop piracy on the internet (which it won't). We and thousands of other websites are telling users what it would be like if SOPA or PIPA were passed, so that they can petition to stop it.
