No questions asked.

Watch this video and stand up.

WTF is SOPA ? aka The American Government trying to ruin the internet

[Soundwave]

:welcome: back lol.

[The Compensator]

Done :D

[TIMELESS]

Done.

[Narwhal]

Done.

[superhyper]

Done.

[Fear Deer]

I've an idea...if this passes...make a little petition only for people to cancel their internet contracts and services, to stop feeding these movements, until the SOPA movement is cancelled.

[Paladin Skylark]

Dun. I mean.. done.

[EmKill]

Done. I hope that the rest of the world would pressure them to not promote this law.

Pay attention to what reddit has been doing with this. They managed to force several Congressmen to switch sides on the bill, and many in the reddit community have influential positions and have presented cases to Congress. They also brought attention to the fact that GoDaddy supports the bill - and the community responded by moving 72,354 of their domains away from the site in the first five days. :)

 

But yes, horrible bill. Combined with the NDAA (the US act that permits US citizens to be held indefinitely without trial), the US is moving quickly towards an Orwellian society. :(

That number is only slightly above the average for movements away from GoDaddy. Also doesn't take into account new registrations either. I think it was only a couple thousand that moved from them.

[Ryzza5]

Whatever the number, it was enough for GoDaddy to quickly change it's stance.

Did anyone know that Megaupload has been shut down because of the SOPA law??

[T1M]

Yep, and Megavideo, which I used loads.

 

Thanks America, for already ruining the internet. :rolleyes:

[Paladin Skylark]

This is totally out of their jurisdiction. Other countries should be up in ARMS about this. America trying to run the WORLDS internet. I'm sick of America playing police force for the world. I want to curse SO bad right now, so I'm going to scream them to myself to feel better................................. Okay, I feel better.

[T1M]

Maybe they should just ban all of America from the internet completely? :lol:

[Ryzza5]

I thought the whole idea of the petition was to stop it from becoming law, therefore meaning it's not quite law yet (although they could've used the 1988/2000 Copyright Act against them I guess. The major difference being they host the content, whereas sites like Google link to sites that link to sites with it.

 

If they are going to enforce anything this drastic, they should also force the content owners (or resellers) to drastically drop their prices since they're not making up for lost profits in piracy any more.

[randomsox10]

Done. Our American politicans have made a grave mistake in promoting this, its a wonder why no one likes them

[iNotACactus]

No one liked American politicians before this, now people just hate them more. :p

[killalldude]

I wonder why Congress is wasting their time on this when there are other pressing issues on hand...

[Paladin Skylark]

I have to say this is making President Obama look like a genius, opposing this bill. I sense a re-election.

[iNotACactus]

You sure? Herman Cain looks fairly promising for 2012! :cheeky: Also the FBI's website has been shut down by Anonymous because the US Government shut down MegaUpload.

[TIMELESS]

"The government takes down Megaupload? 15 minutes later Anonymous takes down government and record label sites" (Universal Music). I hope they keep at it tbh.

[Ryzza5]

Did you hear about how the Chinese government is starting something similar by requiring all bloggers there to register their screen name with the government, linking it with their real identity. Of course, Chine doesn't care what it's civilians think and will just force it pretty easily.

 

 

If I suddenly disappear during the next few days it'll probably be related to this post :cheeky: (wouldn't be such an issue if I was still Andai) :lol:

[MephistoRacing]

If SOPA passes, I'm gonna make a bunch of Blogger accounts dedicated to pirated music and games, simply so I can get Google shut down.

 

"Policy analysts for New America Foundation say this legislation would enable law enforcement to take down an entire domain due to something posted on a single blog, arguing, "an entire largely innocent online community could be punished for the actions of a tiny minority."
