This is not SOPA or PIPA, but The Protecting Children from Internet Pornographers Act of 2011. This would mean:

under language approved 19 to 10 by a House committee, the firm that sells you Internet access would be required to track all of your Internet activity and save it for 18 months, along with your name, the address where you liveyour bank account numbers, your credit card numbers, and IP addresses you’ve been assigned.

Internet-protecting BAMF Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) proposed an amendment that would rename the Bill the “Keep Every American’s Digital Data for Submission to the Federal Government Without a Warrant Act”.
