I'm not going to say a whole lot about this because for the most part I'm preaching to the choir here.  But, if you live in the United States, before you do anything else today, you need to contact your representatives in congress about SOPA and PIPA.

If you're not familiar with these bills, reddit has a good overview.

BTW, I've had some friends tell me that they read a lot of online material against the bills, but that they haven't been able to examine the other side of the issue as much. If you want to read just the bills for yourself and make your own independent decision, without any possible outside bias, comments, etc. from other sources, you can read the complete bills as they are written on www.govtrack.us/ Read SOPA here: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h112-3261 and PIPA here: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=s112-968 

Just scroll down to the "Bill Overview" section and click "Full Text" to read the full bill in its entirety.

Mentioning it here cause I didn't get a reply to my PM, bart -- comments on your 'freegamer' blog are completely non-functional.
