If SOPA passes I think we will have to publish the names of all the politicians that supported it, what states they hail from, their email addresses and their office phone #'s here on Hubski and elsewhere. When election time comes, we can mount opposition regardless of party.

It's absurd that decisions like this are made (largely) by middle aged white guys that have little understanding of the impact.

A shame I can't vote. It's rather frustrating how the decisions of American lawmakers could affect the whole internet. We really should start treating the internet like an ocean. As a shared resource. What happens in one country could have ripples that affect the rest of the world.
