NOPA to SOPA

January 18th, 2012 No comments

(title shamefully stolen from someone else)

So it’s NO to SOPA day – I realise a lot of people in the UK and Europe won’t know (or care) what SOPA is, but really, you should care at least!

SOPA allows the US government the ability to close down or censor websites *just on an accusation* – there doesn’t need to be any hard proof of <whatever the infringement is meant to be> – just the *accusation*.

There’s a whole bunch of websites who have “gone black” today to show their opposition to SOPA, including Wikipedia, Reddit, Google (not quite in the same way) and many others. Here’s a list of who’s doing what: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2399009,00.asp

I’m not claiming to have looked in to the whole deal behind SOPA as it doesn’t affect us in the UK as much as those in the US, but it’s not good none-the-less. Here’s Wikipedia’s page (the only one still active) giving more  information about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SOPA_initiative/Learn_more
