Your voice counts!! Newsweek Behold! What the Stop SOPA blackout managed to do…

on Politics, Showbiz Hollywood 

Breaking news!  FEDS just shutdown file-sharing website Megaupload accusing the site of multiple copyright infringement.  They said that this was not in any way connected to #SOPA and #PIPA.

Yesterday, Google, Wikipedia and other famous sites like Craigslist have joined a blackout to show its position on the bills currently in congress.

If you look at the image above, being compiled by ProPublica, the 24-hour blackout worked.  Those famous sites joining the blackout have encouraged regular readers to contact their local officials and senators and ask them to abandon support for PIPA and SOPA.

That was the effect.  15 dropped their support of the bills and gained 70 opponents.  That’s the power of the internet.  And if we do not act, this power will be taken away from us.

Google has since collected 7 million signatures in protest of #SOPA.  If you haven’t acted yet, now is the time to make that call, to write that letter.  If you need help, follow this LINK.
