Hot on the heels of the SOPA and PIPA, a new law, this time enacted by the Papa Hari World Government, titled SODHA has officially come into force today. According to official Papa Hari World Government sources, the SODHA law is a revolutionary act of legislation that would actually determine the future of the entire World, but the exact details are yet to be worked out. "The Act will have a major impact on the entire World, but the actual details, including specific provisions in the enactment are not determined as of now," said a spokesperson of the Papa Hari World Government.
When asked what SODHA expanded to, the spokesperson was guarded and stated that the Law Ministry was working day and night to determine a proper and meaningful sequence of words that would fit the acronym. "It is too cool an acronym to give up," he added. He also reiterated that the law would have a major impact on the entire World. "This is the first time in history that a formal codified law has been enacted even before a first draft," he said, "The future is here!"
Protesters all over the world took to the streets and shouted anti-SODHA slogans. When our reporter asked a student why he was protesting he appeared confused and at a loss for words, but an enlightened professional protester took over and said, "Anything beginning with SO- is bad for Free Speech. It probably means Stop Online- something or the other and that is absolutely unacceptable." When it was pointed out that SO could also stand for "Start Online", "Start Offline", "Start Ordering", "Stay Outside" and a host of other expansions, the protester sniffed cynically and stated that no Government enacts anything positive. "It's always about stopping."
Legal Experts questioned the validity and constitutionality of the Act, but Papa Hari dismissed all such concerns stating that since the Papa Hari World Government has no written constitution, there would be no question of any law being in violation of it.
In related news, a Papa Hari Law Ministry press release also hinted at a new Law for the future entitled Anti Internet Idiocy Act (AIIA). He stated that such a law would bring to an end all kinds of online stupidity protecting the millions of innocent subjects of the Papa Hari World Government from loss of IQ caused by reading nonsense online. Protesters are already working out a campaign against the proposed law. "Stupidity is our birthright and we shall have it and no law of man can deny us the privilege," declared an activist.
