Fundraiser for anti-SOPA Lobbying initiative -is it viable?
Fight them smart, not just hard, right? After reading http://boingboing.net/2011/12/17/wtf-is-happening-with-sopa-now.html I agree that not playing the Washington game would be good for principles but bad for the imminent SOPA fight. Lobbyist work for whomever pays them, not just Hollywood. What does the HN community think of an online crowdsourcing project to raise capital for a anti-SOPA Lobbying innitiative? Is it too late for that? What online tools can be used(Sparked.com, JustGiving.com, KickStarter.com, )?
- nsoldiac 15y agoLobbyists are expensive I know, maybe some services trades can be arranged as form of payment if we get some talented internet people on board.
- nsoldiac 15y agoIs there any anti-SOPA Lobbying currently going on by any interest groups out there??
- gasull 15y agoHollywood can, and will, throw more money at the problem. I doubt you can beat them on their own game. That said, I will contribute to the fund-raise. Better trying than not.
- nsoldiac 15y agoI agree, matching their funding is hopeful at best, but just attempting to do it can bring a great deal of awareness on the issue.
