Why you ask?  Because of Internet Censorship Bills SOPA and PIPA




Honestly, I'm too lazy to post all the info here.  Check out the site http://sopastrike.com/

I informed people at work who didn't know about these things.  Much RAEG was brought out (as opposed to the usual rage)  I also noticed Razers site has a pretty good stance on SOPA/PIPA...

Megauploads was a video streaming right? If it was they sucked anyway.

In any case, Obama said GFY over the bill.

You know, I don't mind seeing Megaupload eat shit after how the top guys lived their lavish lifestyles. They should have lived half as nice and dumped more money into the backend of the business.
