Today we must fight: STOP SOPA AND PIPA!






SOPA and PIPA is a trending subject in the internet  this past days. Even though this two bills was proposed in the congress of USA a lot more earlier, this subjects caught the netizen's interest only this past few days. Just this January 18-19 2011 Wikipedia had a movement called the blackout , a movement against this bills. This movement caused for netizen's to give importance to these matters.



But what really is SOPA and PIPA?



how will it affect the internet?

Protect IP ACT aka "PIPA"





VIDEO:







ARTICLES:


  • Even though Megaupload's case isn't really because of SOPA and PIPA this case is much alike on what will happen on these uploading sites even though it's really not their fault but the fault of the users.










OPINION:

In my personal point of view basing from what i read on a lot of articles, videos etc these bills will really greatly harm the Internet. Firstly because this will hinder the "freeness" of the internet. SOPA and PIPA would put the burden on website owners to police user-contributed material and call for the unnecessary blocking of entire sites. Small sites won't have sufficient resources to defend themselves. Big media companies may seek to cut off funding sources for their foreign competitors, even if copyright isn't being infringed. Some foreign sites would be prevented from showing up in major search engines. And, SOPA and PIPA build a framework for future restrictions and suppression. Sites no matter what they are will be shutdown if found with even one content which violates copyright. The other useful information even though without any violation will be included because of just one content. You could watch the video or read articled which is posted above for other harmful effects of these two bills.








THIS IS MY WAY OF OPPOSING SOPA AND PIPA.

 WE MUST UNITE TO PROTECT THE  WELFARE OF THE INTERNET! 





SPREAD THE WORD TO OTHERS!

_____________MY TIMELINE______________


The People:

As stated above I will also write here some of the people who made an impact to my life in 2011, family excluded. This year rather putting their names I've decided just to use aliases.


The collective of K-pop and everything nice : My new found circle of friends. The second group of friends closest to me. The group of individuals that frequently benefits on my generosity. One of the reasons that make me want to go to school :)  Hope that I will be still together with this guys even after graduation :).Will miss them for sure ! 

The first valentine:  Even though I've already included her in my year end post last year I still want to included  her still in this year's end post to the reason that she's the first person who gave me the reason to "celebrate" valentines day. She also become one of my inspirations this year specifically the first quarter of the year.

The gemstone: She's probably one of the people which contributed a lot this year. At first she was just a friend to me then for an unknown reason my perception of her changed. She became the main inspiration for this year. Even the one that prove I'm a bit coward when it comes to heart shit. The first that I have "efforted" a lot.

The Anti K-Pop guy/ Yoga Guy:  He made the greatest impact to me this year in terms of the whole male kingdom. This guy made me realize the limitations of my body through his experiences. Really hope that you really recover so that we can create the Anti K-pop group haha just kidding :) *bro fist*


The Violet annoying cartoon named chowder: She's a new found friend in 2011 , even became close friends. I probably liked her in the past :)

The adopted sister:  I included her here firstly because I thought she's the person who I promised to include my year end post but to my surprise I was wrong. Nevertheless, she's still worthy including in this post. She's one of the very close friends I've made this year. I've even treated her nearly as my elder sister. This year I've often stayed at their house because of overnights, her mother even calls me as their adopted child because of my habitual overnights at their house and even ends up going home last always. Before the year ended i had some "mistakes" to her. Just want to say sorry again for that. Anyway hope I'll get a lot of overnights at your house I'm really missing it >.<

and lastly....

The corporation co founded by me :   For almost 7 years this people made and still continuing making my life worth living . Nuff said :)


For the people who's names aren't here don't worry
YOU ALSO MADE SOME IMPACT TO MY LIFE THIS YEAR!
, it's just that i'm to lazy to right a lot here. Sorry!











PS: if you are paying attention to the dates you'll notice that there's an event which isn't in the right chronological order . It is because it was a mistake but it is so tedious to edit that so I just let it be there :)

-partial post... ? to be filled up after i confirmed the dates :)
