SOPA has NOT been postponed to 2012! The Committee members who support SOPA quietly changed the hearing date to the 21st, trying to trick the American people into thinking it was over for the year. This is dirty politics and should be illegal. Fight back. Let them know this is not over.

So terrorism now means indefinite detention, and protesters are "low-level terrorists". Is anyone else as scared as I am?

VICTORY! House committee cancels vote on SOPA (Internet censorship bill) and adjourns for the year. Join the petition and keep up the pressure so we can kill this bill dead next year.

SOPA Not Delayed Until 2012: "Congress was supposed to be out of session until the end of January, the Judiciary Committee has just announced plans to come back to continue the markup this coming Wednesday. This is rather unusual and totally unnecessary."
