SOPA


Our friends over in The Land of the ████ and the Home of the Brave are currently looking at a bill that could infringe hugely on the internet and their ██████ of speech.

I know that the bill is initially concerned with protection of intellectual property rights, but there are a few sleeper clauses in there too, which could lead to some fairly major invasions of privacy.

From there, censorship is just a small hop, skip and a ████ away. Just ask Kim-Jong-██.

Imagine not being able to say on you blog that ████████ is a ████████, that ████████ slept with ████████████, or that the new ██████ is a load of steaming ████████.

I'm sorry to say it but I think the whole thing is a crock of ████ and the SOPA bill should be rolled up and stuck right up ████████'s ████.

There, I said it. I'll expect a call from The Thought Police in due course.

  1. I want to know what bloggers you know are sleeping with each other, excepting me, don't tell anyone who I'm sleeping with :)

  2. AG - Ah, the blogging world is a murky place indeed. But the secrets I know will go with me to the chimney.

    TTT - Damn Facebook - every time I read that word now, I do a little cheery 'thumbs up' to myself.
