I was going to black out this blog for tomorrow in solidarity against SOPA/PIPA (the so-called “anti-piracy” bills currently working their way through the U.S. Houses of Congress. To my dismay, I just discovered that WordPress has evolved so much in the past five years that I no longer know how to mess with the code like I used to. It may just be that my theme doesn’t allow for easy access to the code, but I know that’s probably not true.
Regardless of how infrequently I update (this past month has been finalizing my business structure and ensuring the privacy controls are in place), I am still alive, and I do still care. I oppose these bills as vigorously as I did the last time I blogged about them, and I encourage anyone who stumbles across this blog tomorrow and who cares about the freedom, innovation, and openness of the Internet that make creativity possible to write or call your representatives and tell them to kill these bills.
