The Mozilla Foundation, the group behind Firefox, is organizing another campaign against the PROTECT-IP Act. This time, they’re asking voters to call the Senate next Tuesday (they don’t give a date, but I’m guessing this is tomorrow) to register their opposition to the act.

As I’ve previously written, PROTECT-IP is a bill designed to discourage distribution of copyrighted material online. It would greatly expand the actions that the government is allowed to take with respect to websites or online services that are suspected of being involved in this distribution. There is a widespread concern that the powers granted by this bill are too easily abused, and that they will be ineffective. If you believe, as I do, that this is going too far, please consider contacting your representatives in Congress to let them know.
