Deleting Online Predators Act (DOPA)
Did you know that Congress is about to approve a bill blocking your social networking, blogging or chat room site?
This legislation is called the "Deleting Online Predators Act (DOPA)", but the name of the bill is misleading. If you take a close look at DOPA, you'll find that this legislation actually limits your rights to access and express yourself on the Internet instead of "deleting online predators". But before this legislation becomes law, it needs to get approved by the Senate and, ultimately, signed by President George W. Bush. The HR5319 bill would even ban websites that are used for positive, professional and social experiences.
HR5319 will censor the communication of our generation and tell us who we can talk to, when and how. Tell Congress that social networking is a movement that our generation has built and is something that we are going to fight for.
