As many of you know there are 2 bills currently introduced called SOPA & PIPA which basically are designed to combat piracy and copyright issues on the internet. If you aren't familiar, just google either of them and you will come up with the information.
I did consider shutting my sites down for a day to make a point but figured I would rather just post up here.
Here's the reality. If SOPA & PIPA pass, this site and cbr600rr.com will be immediately shut down. I cannot extend myself to the point of being responsible for everything that anyone says or posts on my forums. I won't run the risk of ending up in court over it. THAT is the reality of SOPA & PIPA.
So if you haven't contacted your representatives, you should do so. And sign whatever petitions you can find. This IS a big deal.
