End Piracy, Not Liberty

Hello, As you have probably heard on the news, many websites are blacked out for the day to protest these acts. I am glad they are taking a stand. If you want to help with this cause you can click on the link below and sign the petition. These acts will effect you and your use of the internet. So please take a minute out of your time today to protect our freedoms.
Thank you,
Janet :)


















Two bills before Congress, known as the Protect IP Act (PIPA) in the Senate and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the House, would censor the Web and impose harmful regulations on American business, millions of Internet users and entrepreneurs already oppose SOPA and PIPA.

The Senate will begin voting on January 24th. Please let them know how you feel. Sign this petition urging Congress to vote NO on PIPA and SOPA before it is too late.

  3. I did get an almost immediate response from my congress man, and it was a bit of a form letter. He did state he was concerned about the wording, and would not vote for it as it stands now. That is encouraging our representatives are listening.
