This is due to come into effect on February 28th unless immediate action is taken by the National Party.

Do you really think it’s fair to have your Internet disconnected due to accusation? No, I don’t think so. Join the rest of New Zealand in the fight against ‘Section 92A’.

To join the fight, you can sign the petition at http://creativefreedom.org.nz/blackout.html, blackout avatars, place banners on your website and a lot more. Anything it takes to help bring down ‘Section 92A’.

I’ve changed my MSN display picture, Bebo and Facebook pictures to support the blackout already. So, whats the wait?
