According to the examiner, any discussions on SOPA have been suspended indefinitely. This essentially means that the bill has been stopped, but it is not dead. Like someone commented, "it's like putting it on a shelf". Shelved indeed, but a major victory. It (the bill) will no longer be discussed unless there is a serious consensus.
PIPA, or Protect IP Act, is essentially the same thing as SOPA, and it is still open for debate. It's future, however is just as cloudy as SOPA, with the author taking out any DNS blocking. As for the future of the OPEN act, which actually does something about pirating... it has been postponed to an undisclosed date from its original 1/18/2012 date.
I would suspect that internet companies still plan to protest this bill as it moves into the Senate for discussion. As for Rupert Murdoch and News Corp/Fox? He thinks you are a criminal if you are against him and these bills, and that YOU and the White House can go screw themselves.
