Please, post something more substantial! If I didn't know better, it would make it look like the actions of Anonymous are directly related to the anti-SOPA protests yesterday and it will only harm us in the end. Yes, there are issues with the megaupload.com take down - but let's not give MSM or the pro-SOPA senators a reason to forget about what was accomplished - and to me a posting on a domain like proteststopa.com with just those screenshots is detrimental to the cause.
(Also - don't take this as me being for or against any of these actions - I just can't help feel yesterday becoming a waste of everyone's efforts.)
- molmalo 15y agoYou are right. There we go, giving the SOPA supporters, some excellent excuses to picture the Internet as a wild land that needs to be civilized through more laws and control. When fighting in the politics game, you have to be VERY clever and cold. You don't have to act guided by anger or impulse. Be smarter than them.
- Torba 15y agoGood point! Edit: "Anonymous takes down FBI.gov. This movement by Anonymous is interesting, however it may overshadow the point of the January 18th blackout against SOPA. Some Congressmen may see their actions as positive renforcement for censorship on the web."
- elliottcarlson 15y agoThank you! I would hate to see someone use this as a reason to convert peoples opinions on SOPA.
- Torba 15y agoNo problem! Thanks for your input.
