Website Blocking

The government can order service providers to block websites for infringing links posted by any users.

Risk of Jail for Ordinary Users

It becomes a felony with a potential 5 year sentence to stream a copyrighted work that would cost more than $2,500 to license, even if you are a totally noncommercial user, e.g. singing a pop song on Facebook.

Chaos for the Internet

Thousands of sites that are legal under the DMCA would face new legal threats. People trying to keep the internet more secure wouldn't be able to rely on the integrity of the DNS system.

Get on the phone and call your representative. Express your disapproval. Tell him or her exactly how you feel, and that you don't support this. Tell your friends to call their representatives, their Congressperson, and complain. Mention that you are a registered voter that takes your civic responsibility seriously and that you will use that vote to express your feelings about this.

“We support the bill’s stated goals — providing additional enforcement tools to combat foreign ‘rogue’ websites that are dedicated to copyright infringement or counterfeiting,” the Internet companies wrote in Tuesday’s letter. “Unfortunately, the bills as drafted would expose law-abiding U.S. Internet and technology companies to new uncertain liabilities, private rights of action and technology mandates that would require monitoring of websites.”  The chamber-led coalition in support of the bill includes Walmart, Eli Lilly & Co. and Netflix.

Google and other opponents of the legislation argue that restricting the Internet in the U.S. sets a bad international precedent and that the language defines infringing too broadly.

Meme stolen from jessieheart

HERE ARE THE RULES:


1. Reply to this post with "OMFGKORRA!", and I will pick five of your icons.

2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.

3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.

4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee




I found this somewhere, floating about the interbutts. I have no idea who made it or where I even found it. It is a very mysterious Icon. But it gets the point across so nicely!
It's my DIAF face!

Pretty much the same origin story as the icon above, but this time it's more of a "LET ME SLAP SOME SENSE INTO YOU!" icon! :D Funfact, this scene made me so sad as a kid. Now it's rather narmy.

Ooooo I do belive I found this raunchy Nun on weepingcock? I cannot remember xD All I know is that her face is hilarious!
I use it as my "lol sex is happening" face.


Once again, I have no idea who made this and only the faintest idea where I found it (there seems to be a pattern here). The story behind it is that my best friend weissheit and I are self proclaimed Team Rocket! I am James :D

I actually made this one! Back when the Toy Story 3 movie was just about to be released someone posted a scan of Sid's cameo and I had... the weirdest fan crush. I made this icon when a higher res image came out! :D

I still have the weirdest of fancrush, but these days I ship him with Andy more, lawl.

Ok so here's the deal. I'm poor as fuck right now and I need to come up with some money by August 12th so that I can pay for my class this semester.

I am offering commissions- $10.00 and I will draw anything. Even porn. Some restrictions DO apply for the latter, namely no underage people can be involved. Oh and no hateful/racist subjects. And the recipient must be 18 years old for porn. No exceptions

All you need to do is reply on this journal and send your request with payment to my paypal account by August 11th.

I will do digital or traditional, and if you pay for the latter I will send you the original :)

Oh and I'm afraid I don't have time to do something hyper-detailed like this ---> http://corvigryph.deviantart.com/art/Fallen-Angel-123034294
But simple backgrounds are fine!


If you are interested drop a comment or note explaining what you want and I will save a spot for you on this journal! I will start when I get paid. I have 19 spots open at the moment and if you want multiple commissions that is just fine.

Here have a poni-fied picture of my girlfriend and I! I'm the black appoloosa and she's the brightly colored zebra-corn. You know just like the gum zebra but even cooler! With drag-queen eye-shadow!

Definate yes. I do belive in ghosts and I am not anxious to upset them in any way, so maybe knowing it's haunted beforehand would help eliviate any trouble.


Also I'm a total nightmare fetishist so a rent free place with GHOSTS? Sounds like the deal of a lifetime! <small>unless its demons. I'm not religious but I don't rule out the possibility of evil spirits O.o</small>
