SOPA Shelved but Still Dangerous

Today, many websites are going black in protest of the SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act) bills. SOPA has been shelved but may be rewritten. Unfortunately PIPA is alive and well.

If you don't understand what the hubbub is about and why you should be concerned about the bills passing, I embedded a video of notable bloggers explaining why SOPA and PIPA as they are currently written are a very bad idea if you like freedom of speech on the Internet.


If you want more information, http://www.blogworld.com/sopais a great place to start.

Reprinting my articles on your site without my permission is stealing and that's not cool. They are my intellectual property. I work very hard and spend sometimes days creating a project and doing the research for my posts. I want all of my tutorials, recopies, and blog posts to live on my blog.

However, if you want to link to a post or write about it with your own words that is perfectly fine, in fact I encourage it! Those of you who link to a post of mine are welcome to use a photo or two with a link to that specific post.
