EDIT by Westfalia Chris (2014-12-16):

Here's a discussion on the Bleaseworld blog concerning the impacts of the proposed legislation:

May I ask everyone posting in this topic to keep it calm and refrain as much as possible from delving into the politics aspect. I've left it open so far because the impacts are quite grave and far-reaching and thus of interest to the hobby community, but I will not hesitate to lock this thread if people feel the need to violate the non-politics rule.
