Rubin Farr Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Surprised no thread about this yet. Very surprised so many huge companies have basically told the Feds to fuck off. Now we're threatening Spain if they don't jump on board? http://yro.slashdot.org/story/12/01/05/1539230/us-threatens-spain-for-not-implementing-sopa-like-law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YO303 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The Internet is the wild west right now, it was a matter of time before the government realizes the internet is basically like another piece of land that they can rule over and tax the shit out of it.

luke viia Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 please remember to contact your legislation, representatives, SOMEBODY about these absolutely batshit bills. they're PIPA in the Senate and SOPA in the house, and they both need to be crushed ASAP. http://vimeo.com/31100268 http://arstechnica.c...dal-on-sopa.ars -- "Under voter pressure, congress is backpedaling (hard) on SOPA" -- this is the kind of story that shows what speaking up can do, so please take five minutes of your time to contact somebody and let them know this crap is unacceptable. silence is compliance in these situations. http://americancensorship.org/ <--- easy way to get started helping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodie Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 yeah, they're backpedaling... in so far that they're just going to propose another bill and hope it goes under our radar or doesn't make us as upset. see: the OPEN act. same bullshit, cuter name. also, door in the face phenomenon. politics is so predictable.

luke viia Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 same bullshit, cuter name indeed. people still need to speak up. feels good man, and staying quiet is seriously just saying "ok " to whatever the legislation does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roasty Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 As much as I want to believe it will be quashed, we must when it's only a matter of time before and to the point that even Joyrex & mods might otherwise not even worth worrying about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
