Internet Censorship Protest Black Out

Hello everyone! This is going to be a different kind of post for me.

Today as you may know or have noticed, the internet is on strike. While I don't have the time to figure out and change my blog to be blacked out, I do have the ability to link you to some important information about PIPA (Protect IP Act) and SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) which I absolutely oppose.

Here are pages about the strike:

Here are some places you can learn more about SOPA and PIPA:

Here is a list of companies that also oppose SOPA and PIPA (though there are many that aren't listed on it as well):

And here you can sign the petition against these acts (along with learn other ways to help the cause against internet censorship):
