The US House will be voting on CISPA on Friday. With President Obama threatening to veto the bill if it reaches his desk unamended, the tech companies in support of this bill are becoming increasingly isolated. If we can peel them off, it’s unlikely CISPA will pass unless radically altered.
VOTE, PEOPLE!!!!
This is about CISPA. Tl;dr, worse than SOPA. Watch the video.
I know I’m a fairly ineloquent Tumblr nobody but come on, followers, spread this around, it could pass in THREE DAYS.
THREE. DAYS.
THREE. DAYS.
WE NEED TO STOP THIS SHIT NOW.
Oh look I reblogged it! THAT MUST HELP THE CAUSE, RIGHT?
No, that isn’t going to work. Here’s the thing! Reblogging and getting this post thousands of notes is all well and good because it raises awareness. But online petitions won’t do much if anything at all. People need to take ACTUAL ACTION and do whatever they can. If you’re too lazy to, then too bad! Because like it or not there’s no way to really stop these things without, you know, actually getting out of your chair. So spread the word and be prepared.
Well… Reblogging does help in the since that it will get to people who CAN do something. This is a way for people who can’t vote to persuade people with the ability to do so. Saying that it doesn’t do something is like saying a boycott or discussing something to a class doesn’t help. Seriously though guys. This is huge and it needs stopped.
This isn’t over: Move over SOPA & PIPA - here comes CISPA - internet censorship
In the wake of SOPA and PIPA, there is yet another terrifying bill on the table. The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (or CISPA for short) which is currently being discussed by Congress.
In Washington, Congress is discussing the best way to avert the ongoing cyberattacks and some legislators have put forward a new act which, if it passes Congress, will allow the government access to personal correspondence of any person of their choosing.
Much like the Big Brother tactics in the United Kingdom recently, this bill will likely cause an outcry of condemnation and criticism, as happened with the deceased SOPA and PIPA bills. The title of this controversial act is H.R. 3523 and it has been dubbed the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (or CISPA for short). It is feared that CISPA is far worse than SOPA and PIPA in its possible effects on the internet.
While this paper has been created under the guise of being a necessary weapon in the U.S. war against cyberattacks, the wording of the paper is vague and broad.
It is thought that the act could allow Congress to circumvent existing exemptions to online privacy laws and would allow the monitoring and censorship of any user and also stop online communications which they deem disruptive to the government or to private parties.

No, this isn’t an anime post, and I hope our followers, and the other runners of this blog, will forgive me for posting “politics” here.
This is too serious though, and with 3400 followers, you are my best audience.
i *am* sorry if people are sick of hearing about politics. but politics or not, this is fucking scary: fema detainment camps are going live. FEMA DETENTION/DETAINMENT CAMPS. IN AMERICA. ALL FIFTY STATES. this is following the bill passed by the senate in a 93 to 7 vote that the government can, at it’s discretion, arrest any american citizen at any time without trial or reason, and hold them indefinitely.
sure, obama says he’ll veto, but with a 2/3+ approval in senate, the veto will be over-ridden. so, they’ve passed the bill to detain us indefinitely, and now they’re activating the detention camps, all shortly after occupy wallstreet starts.
google fema detainment camps, google the NDAA bill. google what occupy wallstreet stands for. please please please, research for yourself online what is going on in america right now. this is very very serious, and very very scary. don’t think about this as politics, don’t use that as an excuse to ignore this kind of thing. i’m not asking anyone to agree with me, or declare themselves as a 99%, i’m just asking everyone that reads this post to EDUCATE THEMSELVES on the shit that’s happening right now. read up on what’s going on and draw your own conclusions, but for pete’s sake, EDUCATE YOURSELF.
- info on the NDAA bill
- occupy wallstreet’s message & goals
- pretty graphics to help perspective a bit
- breaking news (12/06/2011) on FEMA camps going live
- also, this alex jones video talking about the fema camps
- a message from anonymous about the global situation right now
this is no longer about politics - this is literally about our freedoms & liberties.AS AN EXAMPLE: say you have a pen pal in iraq, that can be labeled as “suspected terrorism” - off to fema camps you go, indefinitely, no lawyer, no family visits, no guarantee of leaving.
say you put up a tweet: “i don’t like the president” — bam, suspected terrorism - off to fema camps you go.
say you…. oh, have more than 6 days worth of food in your house - SUSPECTED TERRORISM, OFF TO FEMA WITH YOU. (yes, the last one is true, along with “missing fingers” or looking muslim, etc, check it here)
IF YOU CAN REBLOG A CAT LICKING IT’S LIPS, PLEASE REBLOG SOMETHING LIKE THIS. Seriously. This is your life & your freedom. Spread the word, educate yourself, friends & family.
Completely unrelated to special snowflakez, but take a look anyway.
Signal boosting- PLEASE look at this guys!
Signal boost.
this I don’t mind reblogging :( I try not to politic things up over in my corner but pretty big deal, yes? so.
Congratulations America, we’re fucked.
This bill, passed late last night in a 93-7 vote, declares the entire USA to be a ”battleground” upon which U.S. military forces can operate with impunity, overriding Posse Comitatus and granting the military the unchecked power to arrest, detain, interrogate and even assassinate U.S. citizens with impunity.
Even WIRED magazine was outraged at this bill, reporting:
Senate Wants the Military to Lock You Up Without Trial
…the detention mandate to use indefinite military detention in terrorism cases isn’t limited to foreigners. It’s confusing, because two different sections of the bill seem to contradict each other, but in the judgment of the University of Texas’ Robert Chesney — a nonpartisan authority on military detention — “U.S. citizens are included in the grant of detention authority.” SourceThe passage of this law is nothing less than an outright declaration of WAR against the American People by the military-connected power elite. If this is signed into law, it will shred the remaining tenants of the Bill of Rights and unleash upon America a total military dictatorship, complete with secret arrests, secret prisons, unlawful interrogations, indefinite detainment without ever being charged with a crime, the torture of Americans and even the ”legitimate assassination” of U.S. citizens on right here on American soil!
If you have not yet woken up to the reality of the police state we’ve been warning you about, I hope you realize we are fast running out of time. Once this becomes law, you have no rights whatsoever in America — no due process, no First Amendment speech rights, no right to remain silent, nothing.:
At the very least I heard that Obama was going to try to do everything to stop this bill, but still
IT PASSED WITH ALMOST EVERYONE VOTING FOR IT
WHAT THE FUCKING HELL, CONGRESS?
absconds to canada

OMG NO PEOPLE
FUCK THIS SHIT.

SOPA Provokes Anonymous: Hacktivists Threaten U.S. Congress
(Video: Message From Anonymous To The American Congress)
Anonymous fights Internet censorship by opposing the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).
Those claiming to represent the international Internet hacktivist collective known as Anonymous has issued a threat to the U.S. Congress if they pass the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) currently being considered in the U.S. House of Representatives.
SOPA , also known as the Internet censorship bill, would radically restrict Internet freedom in an attempt to protect intellectual property rights. Critics claim the bill, if passed, would cripple the Internet as we know it.
Indeed, growing concern with the Stop Online Piracy Act has generated a great deal of buzz with the online community. Some of the biggest websites and brands in the world are actively encouraging their users to protest the bill, including: AOL Inc., eBay Inc., Facebook Inc., Google Inc., LinkedIn Corporation, Mozilla Corp., Twitter, Inc. and Yahoo! Inc.
You all remember Tumblr’s ‘Take action against Internet Censorship’, well not long after the loud and roaring opposition by the public and internet the SOPA hearing comes right back and this time, unfairer than ever:
On the next congressional SOPA hearings: there will be no OPPONENT of the bill allowed
It’s time to take action.
Ladies and gentleman, I sincerely wish you spread any news from this topic like wildfire. We really don’t need for-profit businesses dictating every action in our lives. And we don’t need them trying to tell us that information is rightfully subject to censorship, because it isn’t. Information should always be free.

this is an email that I received today:
“Last week there was a small meeting at Mozilla to discuss SOPA, the Internet Censorship Bill.
It was eerie. The DC groups were practically screaming, “this bill is the worst we’ve ever seen and we can’t stop it” — while everyone else had barely heard of it. The consensus? We needed to wake people up.
Well, yesterday the Internet woke up. *You* woke the internet up.
Check out these numbers and screenshots.
To everyone who wrote their rep, made calls, posted to Twitter and Facebooks — and especially to everyone who ran the modal and blacked out their logos, you are courageous and you made history yesterday. You just took the first step to combine the web’s largest sites, its strongest communities, its staunchest defenders and billions of users into and unbeatable force for stopping censorship.
The scary part? We still might lose. Though growing fast, our coalition still isn’t strong enough.
The bill is backed by an unholy alliance of Hollywood, its unions, drug companies, and the Chamber of Commerce. They are pouring money into it, and they’ve been working on this for years. Yesterday, big players like Tumblr, Mozilla, Reddit, BoingBoing, and even 4chan came out strong on our side. Now it’s your turn. We’ve got to dig in and go viral.
If you ran “Stop Censorship” or the “Contact Congress” splash on your page yesterday, we humbly ask you to keep it running until this bill is dead, and to find more people who can. We understand if you can’t, but the bill is just as bad as it was yesterday — so we’ve got to ask.
Click here to get the code to add to your page. It’s easy.
Yesterday was amazing. There will be more, we promise.

People.
In order to understand how serious this is, here’s an example: I mentioned Protect IP, SOPA, and the E-Parasite act to my COLLEGE CLASSMATES. They had NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL I WAS TALKING ABOUT. Only ONE person HEARD OF IT, but knew NOTHING about it.
Our fight is not over yet. We may still lose. We have to KEEP. FIGHTING.
BeefyKunoichi: Please take the time to call your local representative regarding this bill. Protect expression. Protect the internet.
(ooc) GUYS THIS JUST HAPPENED TO MY DASH. Yesterday I was was wondering what all this talk about the Internet bill was, and I thought it was small - BUT GUYS, TUMBLR STAFF IS NOW ASKING FOR OUR SUPPORT. SO…. I’M OFFICIALLY FREAKING OUT.
((Followers, you know what to do. Go, my legion!))
Do not ignore this. Do not scroll past. Take action.
PLEASE JUST DO IT.
DO IT NOW.
DO IT. IT DOESN’T TAKE THAT MUCH TIME. SAVE THE SITES THAT YOU LOVE. SAVE THE INTERNET.
Holy crap — you guys are averaging 3.6 calls per second, and rising!
You’re making a real difference. Don’t let up. Spread the word.
Tumblr and Youtube shut down by the end of 2011
As the man say: Don’t just reblog this and feel like you helped the world because you’re half-assing it. Sign it. Reblog it. Sign it and reblog it.
I, for one, find Tumblr one of the more reliable sources of information and one of the most up to date. We knew about the content of Obama’s impromptu surprise announcement before he announced it himself, just to name an example. The same difference applies to Youtube, so when I see things like this:
Sssssooooo…the government is enforcing copyright. Without proof or hearing they uproot a UK resident and SHIP HIM OVER to be persecuted in the US. WITHOUT PROOF.
Now we have The IP Act that is on the fast track of becoming a law.
An except that summarizes what this does: “The PROTECT IP Act would allow copyright owners – movie studios and other content providers – simply to accuse a website of infringement, which could lead to that site being shut down by court order and entire links to the site being wiped clean from the Internet.”
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that if you even pass a disagreeable fart, a big angry fist will punch you in the butthole and seal said butthole forever.
WHERE’S OUR SHIT GONNA GO?
Before:
After:
So the title of this, while an exaggeration of something that hasn’t happened, is a very real possibility and it’s so close to happening.
Don’t just reblog this and feel like you helped the world because you’re half-assing it. Sign it. Reblog it. Sign it and reblog it.
Sign everything and anything you can.
But most importantly…
Calling by phone is much more effective than petitions or e-mails.

(numbers shown on right hand side of page)Signal boost. A little suspicious that no one knew about this bill until it’s too late to do anything against it. Congress withholding information so we can’t protest before a bill is passed? Probably yes.
This bill is supported by National Association of Manufactures (NAM), the Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council, Nike, 1-800 Pet Meds, L’Oreal, Rosetta Stone, Pfizer, Ford Motor Company, Revlon, NBA, Sony, and Viacom. That’s a lot of money there that can be “campaign donated” to crush us.
Opposition includes Google, Yahoo!, LinkedIn, Twitter, Foursquare, eBay, Human Rights Watch, and the Tea Party(surprisingly).
