Great news for those who signed the EFF petition |
|
In an email Electronic Frontier Foundation writes:
Great news! The messages you and others sent to members of the Senate Judiciary Committee this week asking them to postpone the scheduled markup of the "Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act" (COICA) worked! The Senate adjourned for its October recess without moving the bill out of committee, giving us more time to remind legislators why any bill that interferes with the infrastructure of the Internet for purposes of censorship is not acceptable.
Even as we celebrate, we know this proposal will be back when Congress returns next year. Website blocking is high on the entertainment industry's wishlist, and we'll need your help again to stop this in its tracks. Stay tuned to EFF.org for more actions you can take to protect your digital civil liberties!

You'll discover that the internet has become like Fox News and the New York Post

those (entertainment) who show up to the party (internet) late, should not get to decide what music is played.
