Anti SOPA y PIPA

[chrispaul77]

Hello ...
I am a member of the LJ community ... It's actually a point where I could express my mind freely and always within the margin of respect ... This legislation will be approved in the U.S., but I am a Latin American ... and eventhough it can not intervene ... I just want to say that the Internet connects the world that we are a community not only in a planet if this width with the internet not that we are together ... LJ other sites are meeting space for free expression and thought, we know all the problems that have occurred by copyright, but one thing I learned from my country, is that vague laws can lead to major problems of seeking to solve ... I am anti SOPA and PIPA, I object, that the world is deprived of a free speech and thought ...

But if you violate copyright and you live in a country that is willing to hand you over to be prosecuted in America you are just as screwed as US citizens.

This is not just about America and Americans. This affect all of us!

Exactly, I agree ... maybe my English is not the best ... But I agree with you ... This is not America or America, believe me I roamed for such treatment. this is the internet as a global community. LJ is a point where they can express, be free to think and create and therefore I DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE LAWS ..
