GUEST POST: STOP SOPA!

Oye,
Imagine if you were alive at a time
when the internet was voted on in the US.

On January 24, the US Senate is voting on SOPA.
SOPA stands for "Stop Online Piracy Act".

"Online Piracy" means Google, Facebook, Reddit, Twitter and YouTube. SOPA is being sponsored by old (non-internet) media—ABC, Warner Brothers. Others supporting SOPA are Comcast and Verizon. The group of 81 politicians supporting SOPA are bought and paid for by old money media corporations.

SOPA funds a "firewall" to prevent US citizens from viewing internet exactly like China's Great Firewall.

That's anti-American.

The one place that is growing and creating jobs in the US is the internet. Old media wants that money.

I want you to help spread the word. The internet is awesome but old media is trying to kill it. Right now.

This is that time. On January 24, politicians are voting on the internet.

Spread the word: "STOP SOPA".

Keep up the good work,
Mike
