The Internet was burning from rage today with American Censorship Day in reference to the U.S. Congress’ meeting on SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and the Protect IP Act. Amazing how the movie and recording industries don’t seem to learn from their ongoing mistakes and antiquated ways of thinking. They just don’t understand how OUR Internet really works. For the possibility of ANY site to be taken down without due process at the whim of these industry conglomerates is reprehensible and downright un-American. I hate politics but I contacted my representatives asking them to reject these bills.
A terrific post about this mess can be found here: http://gigaom.com/2011/11/16/the-internet-isnt-just-pipes-its-a-belief-system/
