I strongly oppose both SOPA and PIPA, which are two bill before the US House of Representatives and US Senate that would take away online freedom in the name of copyright protection.
As a content creator working in content industries, I support other forms of copyright protection that do not take away freedoms and that are consumer-friendly. The right solutions are not always the easiest, but SOPA & PIPA would make for bad policy and potentially the end of free information from the likes of Wikipedia! These bills take the wrong approach.
If you support internet freedom and do not wish to lose great resources like Wikipedia, please contact your Rep and Senators.
