Informed Comment is on strike on Wednesday January 18, 2012, to protest the so-called “Stop Online Piracy Act” (SOPA) and “Protect IP” or “Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act of 2011” (PIPA). Please, please, take a moment to write your elected officials to protest these two horrid pieces of legislation which would have the effect of killing the internet and making Informed Comment impossible. And please remember who favored these Orwellian laws and vote them out in November. (See Vote for the Net.)
