SOPA: What does it mean to you and SCJB?
« on: January 18, 2012, 11:32:11 AM »
Unless you live under a rock, I am sure you have heard about this via the news or just around on the internet. Today is a day where a lot of major sites are striking against SOPA - the Stop Online Piracy Act.

This act directly will effect SCJB in a major way - along with every site you visit, and YOU directly.

Why Should you care?

In a hypothetical situation, if a user posted a link, photo, or even embedded a video from another site that is deemed "copy-written", the government can shut down SoCalJetBoats.com and I would have to go to court to prove my sites innocence. It is purely a case of being guilty until proven innocent.

Congress is voting on this January 24th, 2012

How you can help

Here are a few videos that put SOPA and the Protect-IP in plain english.

PROTECT IP / SOPA Breaks The Internet

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."
