“Tell Congress: Please Don’t Censor the Web!” That’s what Google has to day about two bills which have made their way to congress.
If approved, SOPA and PIPA would allow the government to censor the Internet, which according to Google, and many other Internet companies, like Wikipedia, would slow economic growth in the U.S.
Not to mention it is viewed by many as unconstitutional as it prevents freedom of speech. Many people make their living using the Internet, and if the government is allowed to censor whatever they like on a whim, many people could suffer.
Both Wikipedia, and Google have web pages set up where a petition protesting SOPA and PIPA can be signed.
