  Re: Re: New Year's Resolution

  A vote for SOPA gets you no VOTAs.

  nothing ever changes because voters have forgotten they should not be voting for charisma.

  voting out

  I created a mobile website to check the records of your local congresspeople on this vote. For now you can contact them with it, but after any votes are cast they'll show up next to the name & photos.
  
  Very efficient to vote based on your location! http://sopatrack.com - optimized for mobile for use at the polls.

  Re: voting out

  What am I supposed to be seeing at this web site? Because all I see is a message explaining what the web site is supposed to be for. I even looked at the page source to make sure some content wasn't hidden, and there doesn't appear to be anything there.

  Re: Re: voting out

  Maybe you have some kind of script blocker that's hiding some content? If not, there's a big red button that says "find your congresspeople" - try that.

  Re: Re: voting out

  You should be able to click the red button at the top & it will geo-locate you & find your local congresspeople.
  
  If you're not in the US, I'm not sure what will happen... Probably will find the congresspeople on the closest coast of the US?
  
  Also you'll probably need to be using a modern, up-to-date browser.

  Re: voting out

  So you're saying you've created a 'rogue' website that will be taken down under SOPA.
  
  Good thing the courts are preemptively enforcing SOPA by honoring arbitrary take down requests.

  Re: voting out

  Why should politicians be worried about getting voted out?
  
  Haven't most precincts started using computerized voting equipment with no audit trail?

  I still don't think the politicians give a flying f*** about what the sheeple think.

  Re: Re:

  just a widdle detail here. It was largely the Lords and nutty old King George III who didn't care what the colonists wanted or cared about. The Commons was stuffed full of supporters of the revolutionaries. Sadly it wasn't until 35 some odd years later that the Commons finally knackered the Lords so that something like what happened in America wouldn't ever happen again.
  
  It helped that a certain Queen Victoria was as disgusted with what the Lords and George the Nutty had done that where the Commons couldn't directly overrule the Lords, she did. The legal and full neutering of the Lords didn't really happen till the early 20th Century by which time no one really cared all that much what they thought.

  Read this interesting article on the several cases of what the Government, both local and national, have been up to in the last year or so:

  Re:

  Not for a while yet. You can get far more converts to the cause of stopping SOPA/PIPA while lampooning them and making fun of it all while at the same time educating people about the consequences.
  
  I detect some fear here.

  Just my view, but this person should either:
  
  1. Read SOPA and Protect-IP for comprehension, or
  
  2. Go back into retirement.
  
  The last thing we need to have an accurate and meaningful discussion is one who has succumbed to misleading propoganda that relies on absurd hypothericals and buzz words.

  Re:

  So, yet again, an AC attacks an actual artist rather than provide any reason why his opinion is wrong. Of course, someone can't read the actual bills and come to the same conclusion as everybody else against it independently. If they don't toe the corporate line, they must be misled by lies - although, of course, you won't tell us how they're wrong.
  
  "propoganda that relies on absurd hypothericals and buzz words"
  
  Ah, you started reading your own posts? Well done.

  Actually, I'm sure they do. That's why they are trying to get this bill passed...
