I feel like doing my typical Newt thing of writing a huge three page opinion on something like this may lead you guys to not read it, which is acceptable.
I'll shorten it to a paragraph or two, instead.
Is there a name for this act that you guys are all petitioning against? I did some research on a 2013 SOPA and not much came up aside from an article by IGN, and it was filled with vague-isms. I don't blindly sign petitions without them being written in lawyer language. I mean, this petition seems like it's likely to affect as much as the one where they pleaded Obama to make it illegal for Ben Affleck to be Batman.
I want an exact Act being written in, so I can personally wage a war against it. You guys are missing the fine points in a REAL way to stop acts like this being made. They're about as effective as changing your Facebook picture. You want something like this to go down? It's not easy. You don't get to simply sign an online petition, smile and say "I HALPED!" Jesus.
You need to find out the name of the bill. You need to find out the companies who supported it. You need to PERSONALLY eMail every. Single. Supporter. Then you need to threaten them where it hurts the most: your support. We find three major companies in support of this new bill. Then we eMail them. And by "we" I don't mean VGFacts, I mean as many supporters as you can. You tell those companies that you're no longer going to support buying their products until they take back how they feel about SOPA. Then we eMail the Big Heads. The government officials in your state who signed and helped support SOPA. You personally eMail them informing them they lost your vote. You tell them how you feel. You tell them what this is going to do to your heroes who make let's plays.
Is anyone getting my point?
