You Thought SOPA Was Scary, HAHH: President Obama is on Some 1984 Shit
It was signed by Obama back on October 1, 2011; but it has only currently been the subject of a White House petition demanding that Senators be forced to ratify the treaty. Under ACTA, copyright holders will be given direct powers to demand that ISPs remove material from the web with no court order and [...]
WHAT TWITTER MIGHT NOT WANT YOU TO SEE: THE TOP 6 (ALLEGEDLY) BLOCKED TWITTER TRENDS [UPDATE: TWITTER NOW BLOCKING TWEETS BASED ON REGION. OFFICIALLY.]
Seems we’re all a little worried about the internet these days. Whether it’s blatant violations of your personal privacy, worries of government infiltration of our online information, insane anti-piracy laws or our favorite file-sharing sites getting raided like it’s 2000 all over again, we all seem to be on edge that at any moment, our [...]

OBAMA TO INVESTIGATE WALL STREET, OAKLAND POLICE STRIPPED OF POWER; THIS IS HOW SHIT GETS DONE.
And it’s about fucking time, too. As cynical as we’ve all grown to (rightfully) be when it comes to regulation and punishment for the people who control the system abusing their power, this still feels fucking great to see happening. Because it was the nationwide (and fuck, WORLDWIDE) protests against the people who caused the [...]
