The U.S. Congress is in view of stopping online piracy. It is called SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act). The law for sure will not stop the piracy but can give a grim threat to social media and sites like YouTube that gives us freedom to post and view videos (contributed by users) online. In this case the world wide web will face some new security risks and it will not be as open as it is right now.
That is why companies like Mozilla, Facebook, Google, Twitter, Yahoo, LinkedIn and other companies wrote a joint letter to appeal to this law.

It'd be a good idea for anyone who enjoys the freedom of the internet to participate in the halting of this bill. The amount of money the copyright holders are pumping into getting this bill passed is incredible. Take a lesson for those our grandparents who lived through world war 2, freedom has to be fought for, if we simply lay back and allow them to walk over us, our freedom diminishes significantly.
