PROTECT IP Act Breaks The Internet from Fight for the Future on Vimeo.
The US entertainment industry has proposed an internet blacklist bill that could effectively DESTROY sites like youtube, twitter, blogger, facebook, and other such sites.
ANYTHING that has copyrighted music or videos on it, could make the person responsible of uploading the content SENT TO JAIL, FINED, or they can have there internet access REVOKED.
That means, your youtube video with music on it, yea, that music your using is probably copyrighted and so is that game footage your showing, looks like your fucked.
This bill has been set up for quick passage TOMORROW.
PLEASE help join the fight for internet neutrality and freedom, and sign this petition so that the internet as we know will not be tampered with.
Here is a link to the petition so that you can help stop this bill from becoming active.

Thanks for spreading the word, this is an important issue! Figures that something so awful would be given the name "Protect IP"... I hate politicians sometimes.
ReplyDeleteEveryone should fight the government's plan to clutch the internet.
