Normally we will stay away from from politics here at {FFManager} — Today, I’m breaking our no-politics, because there’s something going on in U.S. politics right now that we need to make sure you know about and understand, because it affects us all.

You may have heard people talking/blogging/twittering about SOPA — the Stop Online Piracy Act. The recent SOPA-related boycott of GoDaddy was all over the news, with many people expressing their outrage over the possibilities of SOPA, but when I ask people about SOPA and its sister bill in the Senate, PIPA (Protect IP Act), many don’t really know what the bills propose, or what we stand to lose:-/. If you are not freaked out by SOPA/PIPA, please: for the next four minutes, instead of checking Facebook statuses, seeing who mentioned you on Twitter, watching MTV,  check your mesg in XBL watch this video.

Yeah, I read about this a little bit ago. It's a nice idea in theory, but if it was ever implemented... Than theres no telling how far the government will go...
