(Un)Conscious News ~ SOPA/PIPA Roundup

Via Google Take Action Landing Page

Today is an important day for the internet. Many high-profile website including Wikipedia are participating in a “Blackout” in protest of the new PIPA/SOPA laws.

This may seem obvious, but I am not in support of this piece of legislature – not many bloggers/websites are – but instead of writing about it, I thought I would share a round-up of some of the most comprehensive pieces that have been written about it.

I have also included the video from Fight for the Future which visually explains the issues pretty well.
