BLACK LIST - Read if you are from California, Vermont, Wisconsin, New York, Minnesota, or Illinois * 1
    #13481003 - 11/14/10 12:20 AM (13 years, 4 months ago)

I received this email and quote. I remember the previous discussion on the INTERNET BLACK LIST was here: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/13360768/fpart/all/vc/1

Here the email:

Quote:

We just found out that they're bringing back the Internet blacklist bill for a vote on Thursday -- less than a week from now! We've spent the week meeting people in DC and I can tell you our petition is definitely making a difference. This bill was supposed to pass without objection, but now even Politico is calling it "hotly debated" -- all thanks to you.

The first vote will be by the Senate Judiciary Committee. Do you have any friends in California, Vermont, Wisconsin, New York, Minnesota, or Illinois who haven't signed the petition yet? Their senators will be the key votes in deciding whether this bill passes. Can you forward them this email and ask them to sign on at:

http://act.demandprogress.org/go/11?akid=20.210660.ncDoIw&t=2

Remember, this bill--in blatant violation of the Constitution--would let the Attorney General create a blacklist of websites that every American ISP would be required to block. Wikileaks, YouTube, and others are all at risk. Human rights advocates, constitutional law experts, and the people who invented the Internet have all spoken out against this bill -- but some of the most powerful industries in the country are demanding that Congress rush it through. The music industry is even having all of their employees call Congress to pose as citizens in support of the bill.

We need to fight back -- can you ask any friends you know to sign on at:

http://act.demandprogress.org/go/11?akid=20.210660.ncDoIw&t=4

Keep on fighting,

-- Aaron Swartz, David Segal, and the Demand Progress team

P.S. So far over 250,000 people have signed. Can you help us hit 300,000 before the vote next week?




Thanks,
Fabio

The fire has many things to teach.
But so does the human experience.. which is like fire, sometimes you just need to stoke the coals and sometimes you just need to add a log or reposition the log matrix. But a well built fire will be much more self-sustaining than a poorly built one, and they all need love to grow. And don't fuck around or your might burn yourself. Must always respect the fire. - Shroomism

UFB did you actually dig up the bill and read it? Between this and the other stuff going through, I think something is definitely up. I am sickened how they use semantics to take away our rights, here is how they will abuse this bill:

Internal gov't agents post copyrighted stuff on politically "incorrect" sites, sites they don't like that give the public a voice like you tube, and file sharing sites. Then, some other agents report that site xyz is hosting copyrighted works, the entirety of site xyz is shut down pending final hearing.

While in theory this bill will protect media companies, it really will be abused in a way very similar to how the RAVE act being abused to stop legalization of marijuana, and any other pro-drug protests.

California-signed for the second time. I also spammed it on my facebook, hopefully that will do more good than harm.

I feel like if this passes that Erowid and Shroomery will be among the first to fall. :mad: do we have an IRC or AIM channel?

A link to the bill:

http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=s111-3804

The next action is it will be heard by the committee on the judiciary on Nov 18 at 10am.

That committee has 19 members, listed here:

http://www.govtrack.us/congress/committee.xpd?id=SSJU

If you are in one of the states that has a member on the committee please call them ASAP.  I just called Diane Fienstein to ask her to vote against sb3804.

MN, signed.
Only because I'm a sheep, I didn't actually read the bill.
I just took what people in this thread said and got fired up.
