Write something up like this: | |
Dear [insert congress person's name here], | |
I moved to Durham after I finished graduate school because I believed in the technology industry based in the Triangle. | |
As a web developer, however, I am concerned that the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA) will | |
change the Internet as we know it for the worse and they would adversely affect companies in the Triangle like the one | |
I work for. I think SOPA/PIPA would do more to limit free speech then they would to solve the piracy problem on the | |
Internet. I believe we do need better legislation to protect IP but [PIPA/SOPA] is far from the answer. So I ask you to | |
please do whatever you can to oppose SOPA/PIPA. | |
Thank you. | |
[Your name] | |
Then enjoy free internet. Free as in freedom not free as in beer. |
