COICA

In the United States, a new law proposal called The Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (COICA) was introduced last week, and there will be a hearing in front of the Judiciary Committee this Thursday.

If passed, this law will allow the government, under the command of the media copanies, to censor the internet as they see fit, like China and Iran do, with the difference that the sites they decide to censor will be completely removed form the internet and not just in the US.

Please see the following article from the Huffington Post for more information.

Stop the Internet Blacklist

And if you are a US citizen, please take the time sign this petition
DemandProgress.org - Petition to Stop the Internet Blacklist!

The government doesn't need to censor websites...they need to redo their copyright law to make it so that digital rights media is more manageable for developers, musicians, publishers, etc.

edit: holy fuck this was an old thread. whoops.

I don't normally visit off-topic threads, but this was a nice-to-see bump.
