PROTECT IP Act Up for Vote This Week

It's sad that, despite opposing PROTECT IP, Google has kept quiet about it on all their blogs and websites.

A single blog post or button on their homepage would end this silly bill.
 


it will literally take you less than 10 minutes to go find your senators contact page / fb page and ask them to oppose this. At least then if this horrible shit passes you would know that you voiced your opposition to it.

Read that DNS stuff above, its going to wreck the internet.

Nope, no such laws exist and would fail to get a single vote in congress if it were proposed. In fact, there is much more to this story, and its' all well documented. (And being a marketer, you're right in the middle of it!)

Watch the BBC documentary titled "Century of the Self" to learn not only how deep that rabbit hole goes, but exactly how it got this way. (It's on youtube, and linked to from this forum in about 100 different threads.)
