Stop SOPA

In about eight hours, the Wikipedia website, as long Reddit and many others, will join in an unprecedented effort to stop a dying industry from hijacking the freedoms of American citizens. The intellectual property wars is escalating, and it can only become harsher if the governments of the world don’t understand that the most common forms of intellectual propery (patents and copyrights) are obsolete and should be entirely removed from law, as evidenced by Rick Falvinge in his blog. The intellectual property wars will not end until that happens. What’s left of our right to share and create are in great peril. Let’s not give up these freedoms to corporations and governments as we have been doing in the past. There’s no place for patents and copyrights on the Internet.

If you’re thinking that you’re safe from laws like SOPA and PIPA because you’re outside of the USA. Think again, many of the laws that your country abides by are pushed from Washington.
