Boycott Apple, Microsoft The SOPA Supporters

Postby crustyasp46 » Tue Dec 27, 2011 10:02 pm

Go Daddy burned their fingers when they decided to sell their soul to the devil. More than 21,0000 conscious users migrated to other services. Go Daddy changed its 'stand' the same day, which seems to be nothing more than PR strategy as Go Daddy 'worked' on crafting this act. If they oppose the act, they must run a campaign to ensure that SOPA is not passed. That's what it means by 'opposing' the bill and not by secretly supporting it via PIPA and Protect IP. Go Daddy paid heavily as 'informed' and concerned Go Daddy users revolted and threatened to switch to other registrars.

How about the other SOPA supporters? Will you be boycotting them? There are two monopolies which are endorsing SOPA, Apple and Microsoft. Apple has not said anything in support of SOPA. But, the company either way doesn't care about anything beyond its own profits. Apple itself is a censor police where it runs its own version of SOPA. Microsoft, on the other hand, has been openly supporting such biils.

Microsoft's Brad Smith who blushes every time the company forces a player to sign an Android contract on the basis of bogus patents took pride in supporting the act. Smith wrote on Microsoft's blog:

"We support the goals and approach of this important legislation, and urge the committee to report it."

He concludes:

"Microsoft is a company built on innovation and its protection through intellectual property rights, and we are committed to helping ensure that copyright is respected in the on-line environment. We look forward to working with others as this bill advances toward enactment."

Microsoft and Apple are the abusive monopolies which are endorsing and supporting these dangerous bills. The 'informed and concerned' Internet community revolted against Go Daddy and brought it to its knees. Are you ready to boycott Microsoft and Apple?
