Action needed to save the internet: Call Kay Hagan now (202-224-6342)

And tell her to vote NO on the Protect IP Act. This is legislation written by commercial interests, for commercial interests, pure and simple.

Democratic Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy is inexplicably leading the charge in the Senate with the Protect IP Act. Republican Texas Rep. Lamar Smith is leading the companion bill in the House with the Stop Online Piracy Act. This bill would've been rushed through with no debate through both chambers had it not been for the singular efforts of Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden, a true hero of grassroots media and the social web.

Details below the fold.

While you're on hold with Hagan, take time to sign the petition, too.

Look at how Big Everything converged to shut down the operations of Wikileaks. A community site like BlueNC would most definitely be put at risk.

Color me paranoid.
