Happy Holidays -- we have some great news to share.

We've just won two huge battles in the fight against Internet censorship --
*everything*you are doing is working!  First off, the House of
Representatives failed to move SOPA out of committee!  Why? Because their
offices got swamped with phone calls and overwhelmed by the snowballing
opposition.  Thank you for helping make that happen.

Second, in response to the boycott of GoDaddy, the web hosting company just
made a public announcement that it's dropping its support of SOPA.  Amazing
what you have made happen.

*Yet, we can't let GoDaddy off the hook just yet.  GoDaddy supports the
Senate version of SOPA, called the PROTECT IP Act (PIPA).  The boycott has
to continue -- Please click here to pledge to join
it.*<http://act.fightforthefuture.org/page/m/2e1f2060/1d170b31/713b9071/f863e70/972113413/VEsH/>

Please join us in holding GoDaddy accountable, until they drop any and all
efforts to support not just SOPA, but also its Senate cousin, PIPA.  The
boycott already worked to get GoDaddy to change their position on SOPA, now
we urgently need to hear from GoDaddy about PIPA too.

*So what's next?*

The PIPA bill is still alive and strong in the Senate, and could be voted
on in January.  Like SOPA, it threatens free speech, innovation, and the
basic structure of the Internet.

*Keep transferring your domains from GoDaddy until they fully come out
against PIPA and SOPA.  They need to send a letter to Congress making their
opposition to both bills clear -- Click here to join the
cause.*<http://act.fightforthefuture.org/page/m/2e1f2060/1d170b31/713b9071/f863e70/972113413/VEsE/>

Thank you for all that you do -- it is working!

Tiffiniy & Phil

Fight for the Future

*P.S. Please use these links to ask your friends to hit GoDaddy where it
hurts, by pledging to join the boycott too:*
