So we defeated SOPA and PIPA and that's awesome, right?

Not so much. Now Congress has decided that instead of pirates, we're all pedophiles.

(Yeah, you read that right.)

According to the Protect Our Children Act of 2008, if an ISP gains proof that you're a pedophile, they're supposed to keep your information and turn it over to the authorities for ( Read more... )

Soon they will announce the birth of their new Supercomputer, The Beast, which stores everyone's info all in one place, and additionally announce that society is going cashless.

When that happens I will climb into my bunker, wave I-told-you-so to the world, and just try to survive until the Apocalypse is over.

LOL Wait. Didn't you already get your implant? Don't worry, they'll be by soon to fix that. :)

(Protip: Don't struggle. That only makes them use more force when they jam the needle into your ass cheek.)

ARE.

YOU.

FUCKING.

SERIOUS?!

THE FUCK?! WHAT?! WHY DO THESE ASSHOLES NEED EVERYTHING ON ME?! ACCESS TO MY CREDIT AND BANKS?! UNACCEPTABLE. JUST GO AHEAD AND DECLARE WE'RE GOING COMMUNIST, RIP UP THE CONSTITUTION SO I CAN MOVE THE FUCK OUTTA THIS FUCKING COUNTRY. FUCK. WHAT THE HELL?!

Unfortunately, yes. Serious as the Doctor facing a Dalek.

I KNOW, RIGHT? Look, I know how criminal investigations work. I get that things like bank and credit card information can be key to prosecuting a case and putting the creepers of the world behind bars where they belong. But what the HELL happened to "innocent until proven guilty"? Due process? ANY OF THIS RINGING A BELL, CONGRESS?

It scares me that this can even get this far in the process because, seriously. Talk about a violation of our rights. This sounds EXACTLY like unreasonable search and seizure to me and damn if I don't remember something about that in my government classes. Something about the Bill of Rights or something? IDK, maybe I'm talking out my ass ( ... )

FUCK.

I say again...FUCK

Then again, these are the same dipshits who passed the Patriot Act. WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY TRYING TO HIDE?! That's the only reason you make a move restricting freedoms so swiftly and with such a dangerous and flimsy excuse: You are hiding something even worse under your hat.

FUCK.

RIGHT?

*Is determined to be brave and pass it on*

Can I link to your postie, bb?

I'm right there with you. I used vast quantities of my sailor vocabulary when I first read about this. I had to double check it wasn't some kind of out of season April Fool's joke.

Oh don't even get me STARTED on the Patriot Act. Patriots my ASS. The patriots that founded this company would be APPALLED at what our lawmakers are doing today. These are all EXACTLY what they were trying to avoid, in fact, and that makes me cry.

YES. PLEASE. Link, copypasta, whatever you want to do. PASS THIS ON AND BOOST THIS SIGNAL LIKE WHOAS. We have time before it goes to a vote and we need to use every second to get the word out and make sure our "representatives" know that this is NOT what we want. <3
