SOPA/PIPA and the Wikipedia Blackout

If you’ve been on any social network, read or listened to the news or tried to access Wikipedia today, you’ve probably noticed that there is a massive push to raise awareness and fight support of the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA). I hope this is something you support. It is federal legislation that will could well open individual owners of websites (like aaronbushell.com) to liability should someone post copyrighted content on the site. My website could be shut down without due process. I could be fined or jailed as someone who supports copyright infringement. THIS IS NOT RIGHT.

If you go to any Wikipedia page today, you will see that they are forwarding all pages to their SOPA informational page. You can put your zip code in to get the contact information for your elected representatives. I highly recommend you contact them to voice your opposition to SOPA.
