My facebook censored.
Screw it, I’m going the whole hog on this one.
People do not take this serious, i only have 2 friends that are petitioning with me.
This is a thread on the forum of ROBLOX.com - this one in particular is Off Topic. This thread was made by my friend LegoIsReal who gave me permission to screenshot this. The forum members are more mature than ROBLOX’s intended audience so they knew why the thread was censored.
Taking this to google+!
I didn’t swear or go off on a wild sexual innuendos…so this result was pretty chilling.
This is what my personal site would look like if this bill went through, and that’s just the introduction paragraph. I’d hate to see what it would do to the rest of the site. I can understand why Hollywood and other companies would want to stop the illegal sale of pirated goods but personal sites like mine, which are also a platform to express our love of certain fandoms, serve to connect fans and ironically, also provide free advertising for the fandoms that they promote with a passion which is not always present in their own employees. Further more, it is also sinister when it could also be used to stifle the voices of human and animal rights movements and information about protecting the environment. It is important that these voices are never silenced and is a form of facism if they are.

Censorship reflects society’s lack of confidence in itself. It is a hallmark of an authoritarian regime. ~Potter Stewart
