Stop SOPA

Posted on January 11th, 2012

Please head over to copyblogger.com and read Sonia’s new article about SOPA, the Internet Censorship Act.

Take action at http://americancensorship.org/.

Key facts:

  • SOPA will kill the internet as we know it.
  • Any user on a site that can make a comment has the power to shut your site down — just by linking to another site.
  • SOPA is shoot first and ask questions later. No judicial process. Your site is just off the air.
  • SOPA only hurts the lawful — not the law breakers.
  • SOPA restricts freedom and liberty — and is therefore un-American.
  • SOPA is the same kind of censorship employed by China and Iran… and our state department speaks out against them for it.
  • SOPA goes against the 1st amendment to the constitution — and your right to free speech.
