Blackout

Tomorrow Wednesday, January 18th I would normally be blogging my Wowza Wednesday hotties but instead I will be participating in the SOPA & PIPA Blackout- from 8am EST 8pm EST. Those who  haven’t heard of it, SOPA is an acronym for the Stop Online Piracy bill, and PIPA is the Protect Intellectual Property Act that the American Senate want to impose.

I just recently heard about the bill, I didn’t know much about it until I saw Twitter blowing up about it, so I decided to do a little research. Don't ask for me to explain it cause I'd just get us both lost and confused. So instead I'm going to direct you over to the BBC article I was directed to HERE.
