Down Against SOPA: WordPress anti-SOPA plugin

I just added this plugin to C4sif.org and stephankinsella.com. It will give an anti-SOPA splash page to visitors for specified upcoming days. Others are doing it, like Reddit and Wikipedia.

If Congress passes SOPA, the Internet will be permanently censored.

Misdirected Legislation

Although SOPA advocates claim it targets foreign pirates, the Electronic Frontier Foundation reports that “broad definitions and vague language” allow the bill to shut down legitimate US websites without due process. Among these sites: Etsy, Flickr, and Vimeo.

Uninformed Support

SOPA supporters in Congress actively avoided feedback from public interest groups, Internet investors and professionals, technology companies, and independent artists. They were too busy listening to lobbyists to hear the widespread outrage over the bill’s many flaws.

What You Can Do

It is crucial that we demonstrate our opposition. Let Congress know you oppose SOPA. Look up your senators’ numbers and call them. Or send a message announcing your opposition. Working together, we can protect your First Ammendment rights.
