Not as bad as SOPA, but still pretty damn bad. And it's close to passing while everyone is distracted by SOPA! Call/mail your congress man/women and tell them how you feel about the bill. Fight the PROTECT IP ACT Being voted on by the Senate Jan 24, 2012: Call your Congressman/Woman: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm Sign the PIPA Petition: http://act.demandprogress.org/sign/protectip_docs Here are the steps you can take to combat the Stop Online Piracy Act: 1.Call Your Congressman/Congresswoman: http://fightforthefuture.org/ What to say to them: Hello, my name is [YOUR NAME] and I am a constituent of the Senator. I think S. 968, the PROTECT IP Act, is a bad idea, and I hope the Senator will stand against it. PROTECT IP is overbroad, and could be used as a tool for online censorship. Further, it creates a bad precedent internationally for fragmenting the Internet. Thank you for your consideration, and for acting against this dangerous bill. 2.
