"BLOCKED by SOPA / PIPA"
OK, Not Really But...
You could be seeing a message like this a lot if the United States Government and the Big Entertainment Industry Get's their way.
Rather than adapting to the 21st Century, the Entertainment Industry bribes pays Congressmen and Senators to create two bills that would allow the
United States Government to block/shut down websites accused of violating copyright and/or trademark.
This is a win-win for our government as they would like to surpress the many protests rising across the States that use the Internet as an organizational tool. I know this has a smell of conspiracy, but only because the mainstream news media is failing you. They aren't covering this story because they are owned by the very corporations who support these bills.

What You Can Do
There are two things you can do that would have maximum impact.
First, Stop supporting the entertainment industry. Boycott any company, organization, person, corporation, politician that supports these anti-piracy bills. Support the artists and businesses that understand how things work (create a great product, charge a fair price for it, repeat).
Second, Stop voting in the scumbags who write this legislation because they were bribed took campaign money from these dipshits.
