facebookers,
and a whole lot of other people might not

Anti-ACTA petition

[a cursed one]

I wouldn't use it. It'd be just a giant pile of government regulated garbage; garbage in which no one will want to use. In turn, will make everyone go outside and do other things that don't involve surfing the web.




Problem, Gaia?

[Kyliemarshmallo]

I think this thing is going way too far. But I would stop to save my life.

[Empress Enelda]

I will, one because I'll be even more bored without it anyway, two because my school board will probably be so stupid they might even make us do research anyway, despite the number of the websites shutting down and counting...

[Jewpetta]

hmmmm, depending. :p

[Vangorth]

i think i would but yust for School Work nothing more... neutral

[ForeverDreaming978]

Probably, just not as often.

[RedFiddle]

I would have to think about it if I would use the internet if SOPA passes.

[Hitachin]

[Bellovedx]

If SOPA were to ever pass then many sites I visit regularly, such as Youtube, would be in anger, therefore I would be on the internet WAAAYYY less compared to the amount now. confused

Honestly I can't think of a way most people could just up and leave the internet. As a society to much of our industry and trade is linked to it. Whether or not a bill like SOPA passes, the need of the internet would be unavailable. Sure a lot of the entertainment found on it would be lost but people would still be online. Personally, I have to be on the net no matter what due to school reasons so while I hate the premise of both the SOPA and PIPA measures and have petitioned against it I would have no choice but to honor the decision should it pass.

[CelestialSapphireDragon]

most likely not

[Chibi Halo]

Not going to stop me from using the Net. All the sites I use are completely legal and I don't use the ones that allow user generated content for spreading around bootleg stuff. So I'm good. Besides, freaking out and spreading rumors, fear, misconceptions, and misinformation isn't going to do anyone any good. So while all of you are cowering over in your dark corner hoping to not be found by the rights holders without your internet I'll be chatting with my family and friends and watching my free and legal live action and anime programs on sites like Hulu, Crunchyroll, Funimation, and The Anime Network along with listening to my streaming music for free on Pandora here in the US.
