Title: SOPA/PIPA
Post by Forum Administrator on Jan 18^th, 2012, 9:47am

Here in the US, our legislature is currently deciding whether to pass laws that attempts to curtail online piracy. The names of these pieces of legislation are SOPA (House of Representatives) and PIPA (Senate). If these laws are passed it will likely make it impossible for me to continue providing the Designer's Guide Community. To understand why, please see http://blog.reddit.com/2012/01/technical-examination-of-sopa-and.html. If you live in the US and the Designer's Guide Community is important to you, please contact your Representative and Senators and let them know your feelings.
