Have you ever shared a meme that you didn’t make? Or downloaded a photo you saw on social media? If Congress has its way, you could soon get slapped with a $15,000 fine by copyright trolls––with no chance of appeal––just for doing normal stuff on the Internet. These trolls buy up copyrights with the sole intent of sending out mass threats and lawsuits to harvest settlements.

In recent years, federal courts have made it easier for regular people to defend themselves from frivolous lawsuits by trolls.

The corporate interests pushing this bill through Congress are the same ones that created the SOPA/PIPA.

These monsters deliver enough energy to blow apart the master transformers that supply the planet’s energy grids. When that happens, the lights go out for longer than anyone wants to think about. These X-Class solar storms hit the Earth every 150 years, on average. The last one arrived 156 years ago. We are overdue (

i see the facebook alternative [mewe] has an app for sharing memes… so now i’m signed up and figuring it will come in handy, right? it’s so curious that this went so smoothly through… i found this new social media platform because one of the medical groups that say things like ‘vaccines are harmful’ which may be against facebook rules of their ‘community’ are moving there, and getting into the website for mewe was easy.. that’s as far as i’ve gotten since the medical group just announced their intention to move…. ttyl
There won’t be anywhere to run on the web very soon… It’s their engines and power, so it will be their say…
