MySpace and other Social Networking sites under attack.

Found this on Yahoo! News

On July 26, the U.S. House of Representatives approved legislation (HR 5319) requiring schools and libraries to block access to social networking, blogging and chat room sites. The bill was approved by a 410-15 vote despite being opposed by the American Library Association and the Information Technology Association of America.

This is yet another prime example of the United States government using fear in order to justify passing legislation that restricts the rights and freedoms of the populace (all in the name of the “Greater Good” of course!).
Please help fight this unnecessary piece of legislation by visiting Save Your Space.
