SOPA is one of the most controversial bills to come before the U.S. Congress in years.

Known as H.R. 3261, the Stop Online Piracy Act (and its sister bill, the Protect IP Act or PIPA) has come under fire from internet freedom groups, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), web giants including Google, Facebook and Wikipedia and more.

As such, there has been a major outcry against companies that have come out in support of the bill, so much so that some-including Godaddy.com- have switched from supporting to opposing it.

The House Judiciary Committee recently released a list of the companies that are in favor of SOPA.

The list below is a compilation of the companies the Judiciary Committee says support SOPA:
