You might find yourself with much better employment prospects. The SSSCA isn't based on existing treaty agreements, that I'm aware (unlike the DMCA). Though the trend in international copyright treaties seems to be to find a strong point in the world, then "normalize" toward it. If the enforcement of the DMCA is a guide, you might not want to travel to the US if you're involved in authoring free software, should this law pass. Peace. -- Karsten M.
