    Who would've thought my next blog post would be about another petition. This one's about stopping CISPA (Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act) from being passed. This is a U.S. bill, so if you aren't a U.S. citizen, you don't really need to care about any of this, nor can you do anything about it I'm sure.
     
    Here's a video explaining its problems (please look at this, this is some serious business):

     
    Here's a Tumblr post putting it in layman's terms (warning swearing if you care, basically summarizes the video):

    And here's the actual petition (again, I'm pretty sure only Americans can sign it, so, y'know):

    I'm really hoping this dies as hard as SOPA did, but the petition needs to be filled out before March 15th! Saying thanks again to all those who participate in this one as well.

    So I'm sure there are those out there who've looked forward to Fighting is Magic. For those of you who don't know about it, it is a fighting game using MLP's characters. 'nuff said.
     
    Some of you might have heard the recent news as well. Apparently Hasbro didn't like the fighting game, and is working to get it taken down. Now mind you the dev team (Mane6) is not gaining profit from this project. If it's an issue about the concept of MLP's characters fighting each other, namely it being violent, I say that's a lame excuse. The fighting in the game is basically the same as what's displayed in the show itself.
     
    Sorry, I'm trying not to ramble...
     
    The point of this entry is mainly to bring to any interested party's attention that there is a petition. Yes, it seems that we can help Mane6 save all the work they've done for a great, free game from being callously trashed by Hasbro.
    This is the petition: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/526/847/063/allow-the-continuation-of-the-development-of-mane6s-mlp-fighting-is-magic/
     
    Thanks to those who participate!
