- stinkytaco 15y agoThey are effective. They all forced someone, somewhere to change, or to at least reevaluate where they stand. The only difference is in degrees.
- nandemo 15y agoWalking to work instead of taking a bus is hard. Facing arrest for breaking an immoral law is hard. Protesting and risking arrest (or much worse) by a thuggish police is hard. Please don't tell me that changing your hosting is comparable. Besides, we don't know that the GoDaddy boycotting has had any effect on SOPA (as opposed to GoDaddy).
