Today over 7,000 Internet Companies are “Blacking Out” to protest the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA). You’re witnessing the largest online protest in American history and we love it!
SOPA threatens the very core that the Internet was built on, FREEDOM. Not to mention our jobs and well-being here at iComm Studios.
Here’s the Scenario
SOPA would give both the government and major corporations the power to shut down entire websites accused of copyright infringement with neither a trial nor a traditional court hearing. The legislation is aggressively backed by Hollywood movie studios and major record labels, along with several major news providers, including Fox News and NBC-Universal, which have largely shied away from coverage of the bill.
