SOPA Blackout

I couldn't find a SOPA gadget for blogger, so in solidarity with all the other blackouts today here is a link to an article on why SOPA should concern you:

Here is the conclusion of that article:

"In Conclusion

It is my strong belief that both PROTECT IP and SOPA:
  1. Will not stop the piracy they are targeting
  2. Contain language that is highly ambiguous and extremely broad making them ripe for abuse, and
  3. Introduce regulation and enforce censorship on what should be a free and open internet."
