ACTA is worse than SOPA, here's what you need to know Sunday, January 29, 2012 by: J. D. Heyes (NaturalNews) As a warrior for Internet freedom, you helped defeat the Stop Online Piracy Act, or SOPA by supporting Web black outs by sites like Wikipedia and by contacting...

SOPA and PIPA are not companies, they are bills. SOPA = Stop Online Piracy Act and PIPA = PROTECT IP = Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act. Yes, they were started with good intentions: prevent online piracy/illegal downloading/stealing...

I got a response from one of my Senators, and not a form one either. :rolleyes: He wrote, Thank you for contacting me to express your concerns about S. 968, or the PROTECT IP Act of 2011. Over the last several weeks, I heard from many of my constituents who, like you, had severe...

Emailed one Senator... Page is still loading after 5 minutes for the other... I'll have to see about the Reps...

Should have guessed... Both of my senators are on the list that support SOPA.

So glad I'm not alone..... Anyway, here's an article on it from a natural health website I read. http://www.naturalnews.com/034682_SOPA_online_piracy_protest.html Will be calling later today. Hopefully our reps' phone lines won't be shut down like they did back when folks were calling about...
