Internet control? No thanks.

by Carmen Cruz


Some of your favourite sites are taking a hiatus today. Why? In protest of SOPA /PIPA. What's that,  you ask? Well, it's an anti-piracy bill they're trying to pass in the US. It all comes down to internet censorship/ control. Even Facebook, Twitter, Soundcloud and Blogs would be affected if this law is passed. Here's a helpful video to explain what it's all about.

The US is most affected by this right now, but it's just a matter of time before, like a bad rash, this spreads.

So a special thanks to Wikipedia, fark.com, odditycentral.com, and all the other sites out there in internet land who are taking the time to stand up against these censorship boards.

Hey SOPA/PIPA... guess what?    :P

Besos,
