About SOPA and PIPA, aka Why the Blackout aka On Being Filipino

This blog is written by a Filipino, maintained by a Filipino, and proudly Filipino. Most of the content were typed by my own hand, code crafted by my own mind, and none of it is infringing copyright in whatsoever way (hooray for open source).

So why the blackout? Why the care for stopping SOPA and PIPA?

Honestly, this video gets all the explaining done quickly and effectively, so I’ll just coax you to watch it in its entirety.

January 18 is Stop SOPA Day. I encourage you to join sites worldwide in protest. If you run a WordPress, Tumblr, blog or whatever, post about it / embed the video.

If you’re on Twitter, do tweet about this. Here, I’ll make it even easier for you:


If you’re on Facebook, likewise. Post about it, tell your friends about it, and hopefully we can help generate a bit of additional buzz.

Feel free to start a discussion.
