PostStrike Against SOPA!!!

As some of you may already know, Congress is voting on an 'Internet censorship' bill this week. It is going by the name of SOPA, which stands for Stop Online Piracy Act. Basically, any site that is using songs or entertainment pieces will be fined or deleted. If this goes through, all of the social networking sites, music sites, and other sites that use trademarks and rights without permission may be destroyed.

I am not entirely sure if that would infect this site. Pray that it will not. We have every right to our free speech, and by passing this bill to law, the government is taking our rights away.

A website has proposed a blackout of the Internet on the 18th. That is this Wednesday!! We are asking you to take part in this. Don't visit any website. In fact, it might be better to avoid your computer altogether up until that point.

For more information, visit the link below. KEEP OUR INTERNET FREE!!!

SOPA Boycott Website


This is a serious issue. Protect your rights to freedom of speech and use. There are already ways to stop people from misusing copyrights, must they push further??

P.S. I might put the website under maintenance that day. That will help people tempted to get online.


Here are the timezones, so that you can know when you can come back on. I seriously hope you know your US.

Websites joining the blackout include:

Reddit, whom made it.
The Cheezeburger sites
Wikipedia
Mozilla
Mojang.com and anything involving them or Minecraft
The MLG websites
Newgrounds

Even Google and Youtube might join the cause. So what else is there you go on via internet anyhow? XD Stay off and help protest SOPA.

I should make a banner for those twelve hours, just letting people know what's going on and why they can't log in. c: Smart idea, Sleepy ^^

Congress may have the final vote, but they have to listen to what we want.
