Sign GOOGLE’s Petition Against SOPA & PIPA
Some of your favorite websites may be “dark” today and not allow access. This is because of a controversial new law before congress which could have many unintended consequences. We have chosen not to blackout Snazzywin, since you would miss out on playing instant win games today, but you can read more about this issue at CNET and if you choose to support Google’s Petition, you may use the link below and fill out your information on the right side of their page.
Editorial:
Should the Federal Government have the right to prevent you from accessing a given website? Imagine if a new website, inadvertently let someone post a copyrighted video or song in their forum. If a complaint was waged by the copyright owner, the United States Govt would have the right to block you and all U.S. internet users from any access to that entire website. Have you ever copied and pasted from one site to another? Have you ever used a copyrighted song on a personal video and posted it somewhere online? Have you ever copied something from your DVR to anywhere online? If so, this new law would give the Govt legal authority to block that website domain from all U.S. web users. If this new law passes, expect to see highly-moderated or non-existent forums. There’s little chance that website owners will continue to take the chance that you will post something causing their entire site to be cut off from the U.S. Is this really what we want? Copyrights should be enforced, but this goes too far.
