The SOPA Silence

Deleted • 18 January 2012 at 5:22 PM

The year is our year, 2012, and Congress has just agreed to allow SOPA, and so has the President. Black Out Day occurred, and some sights never came out of that Black Out. It all started as certain things being blocked, like YouTube, Wiki, etc., the reason they never came out. Sometimes whil writing a reposrt for school, the little padlock with the words
"BLOCKED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OR SOPA AND PIPA."
Would appear. But them, one day, a breaking new website appeared. The little description under the link caught your attention greatly. The website was called "Piracy or Secrecy?". The description read "Stop the Piracy, or Stop the Democracy?" you clicked it, and flashing red lights appeared, warnings against SOPA. At the top of the page read
"Stop it, before it stops you."
You scroll to the bottom, and it reads
"DANGER! EVERYONE IS IN DANGER! SOPA IS KILLING US! SOPA IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK! IT's TRYING TO DESTROY-"
when suddenly, your computer starts to spaz, sparks flash, and suddenly...
The padlock appears.
What was the warning? What is SOPA trying to destroy? What's all this about SOPA and Democracy? How is it killing us? Questions echo in your mind.
Then suddenly, the next day, everywhere is under lockdown. The entire U.S.
What will you do? The states are crumbling.
What will you do?

Bump or something, anyone?😊

I'm not in the US... but If I were there, I would clearly understand that.

The government are finally getting sick of us,
doing our own things.
Either SOPA could go no where,
or it could spread like fire.
It will be stupid of the US if this all works out.
There will be a HUGE fight.

@iridescent, Sorry, but what does SOPA and PIPA stand for?

Oh... now I understood XP Google is essential for me!

@duchess I can't quite remember, but if you look in the forums for a topic called Black Out Day, it explains😊 I had no clue what it meant, r even knew it what it was until just now D:
It's kind of silly to me, I mean when you're little you're always warned be careful of the Internet, but SOPA has power to censor piracy, but with the power to silence piracy, don't you think they can censor other stuff too? So I created this roleplay😊
