Alright /fringe/, I don't want to have 3 stickies since it's retarded and occupies too much space, but this is important, even if you live outside the US.
This also can endanger the very existence of the 8chan and freedomboard.
NOTE: This isn't fringe wizard related, but it affects us all, so I'll have it here for some time.It's also worth noting how TPB (The Pirate Bay) got taken down 2 days before today.

https://www.facebook.com/repjustinamash/posts/812569822115759When I learned that the Intelligence Authorization Act for FY 2015 was being rushed to the floor for a vote—with little debate and only a voice vote expected (i.e., simply declared "passed" with almost nobody in the room)—I asked my legislative staff to quickly review the bill for unusual language. What they discovered is one of the most egregious sections of law I've encountered during my time as a representative: It grants the executive branch virtually unlimited access to the communications of every American.
