Dear Congressman/Congresswoman ___________,
I am writing to voice my objection to the passage of H.R. 3261 - The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA). This bill, though it may be well-intentioned, would give unprecedented authority to the Attorney General's office to force internet service providers (ISPs) to suspend business with web-content providers who are found in violation of IP laws, as well as force search engines to block links to those content providers. This grant of power is extremely dangerous, as well as unconstitutional, and this bill threatens to undermine the free and open internet that we love and are dependent on. We simply cannot allow it to pass.
Congressman/Congresswoman _______, please join myself and millions of Americans, as well as Google, Wikipedia, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon and many other important web-content providers in opposition to H.R. 3261
Signed,
