DailyDirt: Together We Can Stop SOPA

from the urls-we-dig-up dept

Usually, this DailyDirt post provides some relief from the regular topics here on Techdirt. Not today. SOPA & PIPA need to be defeated, and the organizations behind these bills won't stop. So we won't either. Here are just a few more sites that will help you learn about why SOPA & PIPA are just plain bad for everyone -- and each can show you to how to contact your elected representatives for political action.

    Have CNN on, missed who paid for it, but just saw a commercial saying to tell congress to stop online piracy and support SOPA.

    Re: Hollywood!

    TV commercials that are pro-SOPA are likely paid for by the MPAA or other entertainment groups.

    was it this one:

    Different commercial, but enough similarities that it was surely the same group.

    Upon seeing it a second time, paid for by Creative America along with US Chamber of Commerce.

    Creative America, eh? It's funny how Nuge claims Google can't blackout its own logo, but his group can pay to fill televisions with garbage.

    Here lies the truth about SOPA/PIPA that even TechDirt has yet to report: what MPAA, RIAA, and Hollywood execs do not want you to see.

    The truth behind why these big companies responsible for SOPA and PIPA are also responsible for piracy itself is far more insidious than even their outmoded business model.

    Hint: can you say, do as I say so I can crush you under heel?
