Thanks e1th0r for the images against SOPA.
Today an article I wrote was published in the newspaper Ciudad Caracas . In it I summarize what SOPA and PIPA are and how they would affect all of us if they are approved.
I will present three videos that explain in more detail what SOPA and PIPA are and how they will affect us if these bills are approved.

- Mozilla
- FreeSoftware Fundation
- Tucows
- XDA Developers
- Cuevana
- Anonymous
- Diaspora
- Twicpic
