GoDaddy.com, has just announce that it’s pulling out of it’s support for SOPA – The Stop Online Piracy Act, but it needs to be thought of a lesson — FOR GOOD! I had been a GoDaddy domain buyer for years and as time had past and the success it has gotten to a point where it has became the internet’s largest domain registrar, it also became a tyrant and with that note I had pulled all but one domain, .WS which would cost me $100 to transfer to another registrar (Namecheap.com which is one registrar which opposes this legislation) where I had been for the last 5 years and I must say I have had no problem with their domain service (hosting sucks though).

GoDaddy.com has pulled out it’s support for SOPA, which it helped craft the controversial legislation.

“Fighting online piracy is of the utmost importance, which is why Go Daddy has been working to help craft revisions to this legislation – but we can clearly do better,” Warren Adelman, Go Daddy’s newly appointed CEO, said. “It’s very important that all Internet stakeholders work together on this. Getting it right is worth the wait. Go Daddy will support it when and if the Internet community supports it.”

Because of the outcry of the opponent and domain owners GoDaddy made a wise business decision to pull out of support for this evil legislation which could ruined sites we love ie,YouTube, Google,Wikipedia and thousands of other sites and your sites as well, for you and me it could mean fines and jail time just for posting cat videos made by others, this is an out most serious thing that could ever happened and the only one that benefits from all of this are the movie/record industries and some small sadistic mind individuals that enjoy seeing people being being persecuted for nothing or little.

This are the type of people that could get you in trouble if SOPA is pass as law.

What is SOPA?

The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), also known as H.R. 3261, is a bill that was introduced in the United States House of Representatives on October 26, 2011, by Representative Lamar Smith (R-TX) and a bipartisan group of 12 initial co-sponsors. The bill expands the ability of U.S. law enforcement and copyright holders to fight online trafficking in copyrighted intellectual property and counterfeit goods. Now before the House Judiciary Committee, it builds on the similar PRO-IP Act of 2008 and the corresponding Senate bill, the Protect IP Act.

The originally proposed bill would allow the U.S. Department of Justice, as well as copyright holders, to seek court orders against websites accused of enabling or facilitating copyright infringement. Depending on who requests the court orders, the actions could include barring online advertising networks and payment facilitators such as PayPal from doing business with the allegedly infringing website, barring search engines from linking to such sites, and requiring Internet service providers to block access to such sites. The bill would make unauthorized streaming of copyrighted content a crime, with a maximum penalty of five years in prison for 10 pieces of music or movies within six months. The bill also gives immunity to Internet services that voluntarily take action against websites dedicated to infringement, while making liable for damages any copyright holder who knowingly misrepresents that a website is dedicated to infringement.

Proponents of the bill say it protects the intellectual property market and corresponding industry, jobs and revenue, and is necessary to bolster enforcement of copyright laws especially against foreign websites. Opponents say that it infringes on First Amendment rights, is Internet censorship, will cripple the Internet, and will threaten whistle-blowing and other free speech.

Canon Cinema EOS

Canon introduces Cinema EOS starting at $20,000 just for the body alone and if you need one of the two lenses you can have them respectively at $45,000 and $47,00 apiece, but hey, it’s out of my range at the moment, but this things normally are way up in the six figures. Canon just made it more less expensive for the independent and professionals alike to own a tool which delivers high end results.
