Give attention to what is happening in the great wide, but limited viewed, world of politics.
So what's the options? we keep our mouths shut in the hope that SOPA & PIPA will just blow over! or we keep giving our voice as individuals and let people see we are not frightened of the big companies. I have not put anything on this forum that is against any EU law and would remove any post that contravenes EU laws. but it's a small non profit forum with members from around the world, and I can't be here all the time so where do I stand. as owner of a forum and living in France I am governed by French law, yet my host is in the USA. So which law should I apply to Psoriasis Club and how can I possibly monitor what is posted 24/7?
What I know of SOPA & PIPA it's a USA thing and it is up to the USA citizens to decide what happens. I'm a EU citizen and follow the rules of the country I live in, and if that means I have to pay a bit more for hosting in France, so be it. I will not be silenced by fear of a big company wanting to stop me reporting information from reliable sources or giving my opinion of what I as a psoriasis patient think of a particular drug.
