The Internet Blackout

So I'm sure some of you today saw the Internet blackout that was going on with Google, Reddit, Wordpress,Wikipedia and many more.. Whats it mean?? Well lets take a look at it.  There are two laws that the U.S. government are trying to pass, Protect IP Act, PIPA for short and  Stop Online Piract Act, SOPA for short .  Now what these two laws do are really mess up the internet as we know it. Lets say that PIPA passes, Websites that the government deems  guilty of copyright infringement, they will force your internet provider to block these pages from you. Any website that has a link to said website will face legal action as well. Including and not limited to search engines, directories, and blog sites. Also they will force advertising service to pull all add from those pages. Now lets look at SOPA.  This bill basically work along side PIPA to act as a Black List for Mega corporations and the U.S. government, so they can pick and chose who get paid. IMAGINE THAT . So if after all that you still wonder how that effects you?? Well you know that cute video on you tube you love of that hot chick singing  that Katy Perry song you love. Well no more that's against the rules. Or the video you wanted to post of you doing that killer version of Tainted Love that you hope is going to make your band huge.....nope sorry. How about this Blog ? Sure it will stay up as long as I don't post anything bad about the government, or any large corporations. Also this would stop any site from opening that the government feel could one day online piracy could occur. I mean come on is this for real? It's sound like something out of a Sci-Fi movie where no one has the right to do anything. So if this bothers you at all please take a moment to sign this Petition to help site such as this one to live on.
