ABSOLUTELY!

I hate both of these acts, and the fact that 50+ old white guys who don't even know what a computer is let alone how to use the internet are being trusted to choose whether or not we can be censored is upsetting.

Piracy isn't even a big -problem.- The people that pirate games and music probably weren't even going to buy it anyway, and taking down websites in this manner will just force them to be more creative. If you make it so that they can't download that album? That's fine, their friend will buy it and they'll just steal it the traditional way!

So, yeah, we should do it. As long as we can still access the other places in some manner!
