Don't let Congress break the internet!

I have been covering the proposed legislation on various internet topics. I know all the acronyms, geek speak, and political double talk can be confusing, so I have written two articles in hopes of sorting through all the acronyms and geek speak of the current SOPA and PIPA battle going on. I'm a bit fired up over this because politicians don't understand the technology. They should keep their fingers off of it!

You are using the internet right now to read this. As someone who uses the internet you should care about the governments desires to regulate it. It is your internet too! Give a damn! Understand!

PLEASE, take a moment to read the following articles. We attempt to explain the geek speak in simple terms, PIPA, SOPA, and the battle for the internet: Understanding the technology. Hope this helps you to understand what we are fighting for, PIPA, SOPA, and the battle for the internet: Understanding the politics

The argument I use here is a lot like an analogy I use to put the internet into perspective. The internet is not evil. But evil people use the internet. The internet is like a mirror, it simply reflects what it sees. If you don't like what you see in the mirror, you don't break the mirror, you change the reflection!

Don't let Congress break the internet!
