SOPA

My blog isn't that popular, and I fear I'm not a great writer, but let me sum this up in a few short words:

The American government's basically handing the right to block websites from the Internet for having "copyrighted content" to power hungry corporations, and it's doing so through these bills called 'SOPA' and 'PROTECT IP.' Should these bills pass in the way the corporations want them, you can kiss sites that host fan art (like DeviantART) or anything else that could be considered copyrighted content (YouTube, Facebook...) goodbye. This has to be stopped.

Please have a look at some videos that explain it better than I can. They'll also tell you just how you can fight this idiocy.
