Originally for …
Originally for the project I was thinking of doing it on Korean and Japanese relations, however now I seem to be straying further and further away from my original idea. As interested in Korea and Japan as I am, I am more interested in the culture of Korea as opposed to the accounts of Japan and Russia fighting over ownership in the 19th century. My mind tends to go on tangents I suppose, now I’m thinking of putting together a collection of old comics.
Korea and Japan
For newsroom I want to take a look at the relationship between these two countries through history using the newspaper. I am interested to see what the western perspective, especially that long ago, would be.
On a more exciting note….
After a noteworthy lack of action on during the SOPA blackouts on January 18th, it seems that Anonymous is springing back into action in response to the federal takedown of MegaUpload and the subsequent arrest and likely extradition of Kim Dotcom. Just hours after the news that the U.S. federal government took down MegaUpload alongside an indictment on piracy charges, Universal.com and Justice.gov have gone down, and a prominent Anonymous affiliated Twitter account is claiming responsibility.
Sign the petition, protest SOPA/PIPA
There is a difference between piracy and creativity.
Millions of Americans oppose SOPA and PIPA because these bills would censor the Internet and slow economic growth in the U.S.
Two bills before Congress, known as the Protect IP Act (PIPA) in the Senate and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the House, would censor the Web and impose harmful regulations on American business. Millions of Internet users and entrepreneurs already oppose SOPA and PIPA.
The Senate will begin voting on January 24th. Please let them know how you feel. Sign this petition urging Congress to vote NO on PIPA and SOPA before it is too late.
