You know, I don't like to get involved in politics, but sometimes you HAVE TO. These SOPA & PIPA bills are insane & will affect EVERYONE who uses the internet. Even if you're like me & prefer to keep out of politics, this is important. I've found all these links today alone from what friends have posted on Facebook.
Here, educate yourself !
Song about SOPA/PIPA
A blog on Reddit explains SOPA/PIPA
Google explains SOPA/PIPA
A really good video explaining the bills & why they're so bad for lovers of the internet. This video is one of the best out of all these links, imo. It gives a short, concise explanation of what's going on &how it will affect you. Even if you don't read through all these other links I've posted, at least watch this. It's only 4 minutes long.
If you don't want to call or write a letter yourself to your representatives, here's an easy alternative to still make your voice heard
Here's a PDF file showing a current list of companies all over the US opposing the bill
Another simple way to let Obama know you're against this bill!
Yet another site to sign so people know just how ridiculous we all think this bill is.
The guy who created SOPA doesn't even follow his own rules.
Srsly guys, even if you're not into politics, this is a really important thing to get involved in. EVERYONE will be affected by these bills, no matter how little or how much you do online. Don't let these bills pass! Call your representatives today, or write them, or simply sign one of the many petitions out there, some of which I've linked to here.
Together, we can stop SOPA/PIPA from being passed.
