Default Sopa

Wikipedia and many other sites are blacked out today because of the SOPA bill. This is a bill that if it passes, may radically change the entire internet as we know it! Support the protestors, and make sure you check the english wikipedia today!

I've said it elsewhere but I feel I should say it again.

I STRONGLY believe that if this were to finally happen, we'd go off the deep end and there would be SO many consequences. Can you imagine not only the jobs lost, but the money people make over the internet lost? Then you have more unemployed people in the USA for example, and then they lose their houses, cars, etc. Banks are under even more pressure. It would be a total disaster.

You have people protesting NOW (occpuy wallstreet) over the "BAD" government when we STILL have "the freedom of the internet", wait until that is taken away, watch what kinds of protests (whoops I think I meant riots) start popping up everywhere.

On a more comical note:

Arena Net, December 21, 2012: Guild Wars 2 is finally released guise, it's only been 5 years since the announcement in 2007!
SOPA: Hai guise were throwing the internetz killswitch now, lots of stuffz going bai baiz 4 everz.
Arena Net: SSorry guys we have no control over this.
Anticipated GW2 players: FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
