Censorship Sucks

Houston, we have a problem. SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) is a new bill that will spell doom for the Internet as we know it. Nearly every major website will be affected, most likely in negative ways. Please click here to petition against the bill and check below for the full details.

1. SOPA will be used to IP block any website with copyrighted content. This isn't just in regards to what the site owner posts. For example, a comment that links to pirated material could cause Faladran.com to be added to the American government's list of "rogue website."

2. Streaming copyrighted work will qualify as a felony. The gaming community will be particularly hard-hit. Let's Plays, various gaming videos and use of copyrighted music could potentially result in jail time. 

A massive outcry has risen to combat this bill. Sites in opposition of SOPA include Mozilla, Tumblr, 4Chan, Wikipedia and many others. Again, please click the above link to express your opposition to this heinous bill.
