So, fans and friends, bronies and everyone.

Now you can read the uncensored version of my journal.

When SOPA or PIPA get through I will not anymore be able to write about ponies.
Even the Artwork will be less, and not more. BUT I where on of the few who can draw ponies, so why?
With SOPA or PIPA it is forbidden any kind of fanart or works with material from a copyrighted source to create. You need first a license or permission for that. A long time before I started with drawing ponies, I was with Hasbro in discussion. The day I joined Deviantart was the day when I became the permission from Hasbro MLP content to create.

But thats it, a lot of people out there do fanart because Hasbro has nothing against it. With SOPA everyone who wants to create fanart must have a personal permission for his works or even a license. That would inflict 99% of all MLP artist. That would mean 99,99% less MLP stuff. No more videos, games, fanart, or episodes on YouTube. And no more EqD.

Don't take SOPA / PIPA easy.

Yesterday shows me the (imo positiv)effect of the blackout events from Wikipedia and so on.
Because Yesterday there was finally some news in the german news about SOPA just because of the blackout events.
Nothing big but they also said that SOPA can be very negative and been used in the wrong direction(insert "you don´t say" meme here) even such a small kind of statement isn´t something that i hear very often in the news.

All my Kudos to you Ray for your actions, journals and clarifications and sorry for my grammar xD

Don't worry about the grammar, I don't even know what that is, can I eat it? XD (joke)

And yes, I am happy, a lot of German Lets Player or general from the German Gamer community helped to show what would happen when SOPA pass. And alot of people around the world too. Even big companies and small publisher helped. Mojang has take an Blackout too for the day. Even that this wasn't necessary. But it shows around the World, the problem of SOPA and PIPA.

Ah....my country.... why you so stupid?

But, did ya know that SOPA's not getting too much coverage over here? I mean, back in my hometown, no one know what it was (it was never in the papers), and it's not like it's all that small of a town. Technically, it's a city.

The sad thing is, that the people who wanted that SOPA pass also buy the silence from the news Median. Even in Germany nobody showed something about SOPA, only on little gaming news show. The big news show and paper don't bring something about SOPA because they become money.
