Stop SOPA

I'm sure most of you have seen something about this, if not there is a link to a page with information at the bottom of this post.


To Quote myself from my deviantArt post about this.

"These two bills, if passed, are the first steps toward the government controlling its its people. Our country was founded on the idea that the people control the government. NOT the other way around. These bills, along with others like them, should never have been purposed. Stop SOPA, period."


These two bills will cause ALL sites like this one, deviantART, and even fan made stories, videos, etc. to be censored and shut down. We need to stop these bills, period.

I've signed into 2 sites so far, and email petition.

its crap like this that almost makes me feel ashamed that i went to war for this country... I mean did they really think they could even consider something like this without a enormous public outcry? This isn't just trying to stop piracy, its shutting down the opportunity for fans to post their own creations. this is defiantly another stupid idea from some trumped up politician who thinks that controlling and censoring are way of making the internet 'safer'. fucking idiots.....

I'd say it's also likely a move pressed for by money grubbing lobbyists who lose out on profits because of piracy. The problem is that these bills can't stop piracy. They can only impede it until people find a way around it. All these bills will really do is throw our modern day information technology into chaos. Tons of sites all over the net would be effected and I really don't want to have to put up with that outcome. I believe in what our country stands for...but we citizens and politicians of it have wandered so far from that image that it's just sad. Money is what drives this world rather than things like freedom and morals.

I just signed both pages, thanx for the links guys. My phone will not let me see it in the browser, so this is purely for a shitty memory... But I believe that on my pc I saw another signing post on www.deviantart.com , and there may be one on www.zerochan.net

I can't do anything about it sorry.

@Spire:Your statement makes no sense. Not sure if you're trying to make a joke or not.

In any case it's nice to see others are doing what they can to help. I can only hope all the people that check our site see this and maybe take part.

My mom said the same thing... that it wont make a difference... even if so, no harm in doing regardless
