Fade To Black: Stand Up Against Internet Censorship

The plan is to go internet silent January 18th. Congress is voting to censor the internet. The internet of all places. The one place where everyone is treated as equals. Since i'm just learning of this, the movement has to spread like wildfire. Do you think it will work. I dunno. I do know it's gonna be hard to stay away but i'd rather shut up than be censored ;-)

*Check out Wikipedia as they go black. Use the tool to input your postal zip and then...

Wikipedia-- Call your elected officials.
Tell them you are their constituent, and you oppose SOPA and PIPA.

Why?
SOPA and PIPA put the burden on website owners to police user-contributed material and call for the unnecessary blocking of entire sites. Small sites won't have sufficient resources to defend themselves. Big media companies may seek to cut off funding sources for their foreign competitors, even if copyright isn't being infringed. Foreign sites will be blacklisted, which means they won't show up in major search engines. SOPA and PIPA build a framework for future restrictions and suppression.

In a world in which politicians regulate the Internet based on the influence of big money, Wikipedia — and sites like it — cannot survive.

Congress says it's trying to protect the rights of copyright owners, but the "cure" that SOPA and PIPA represent is worse than the disease. SOPA and PIPA are not the answer: they will fatally damage the free and open Internet.

Life Is Just Awful. Ain't It?

Life is awful. Dealing bad hands. Getting the short end of the stick. Hardships. Strife. Cup half empty syndrome. Pessimistic happenings. Reoccurring nightmares parading as 'just another bad dream'. D ...more
