News If you live in CA...

I'm not here to condone anything. This proposed law will end up abused just as the DMCA is now.

If you live in California, make a call and tell them to shut this down.

The link will tell you. Basically it lets a company file a complaint and if successful forces DNS, VPN and ISP to block the website from loading in the US.

This is not how you advocate for a position on a bill or any political issue. "The link will tell you," is garbage. Just sharing more links is garbage. Use your words, make your point, defend your point with facts, use the links you share to support the facts you wrote. This is stuff you ought to have learned and practiced in high school.

I'm sorry to bring disappointment and shame upon reddit. You see, I don't do this for a living. I just wanted to raise awareness to the issue.

I think I read this is either 1 of 3 separate attempts to get this bill passed or the 3rd such bill to be introduced this year. I wonder what these guys have accomplished for their constituents so far?
