An "Opt Out of Service" Day Protest...

Rabbi Dali Rick · Post by **Rabbi Dali Rick** » Fri Jan 28, 2011 12:05 pm

With the recent inclusion by Paypal, Facebook, Amazon, MasterCard and others in the Wiki-Leaks debacle, these companies need to be sent a clear, and concise message, "We will not be thrown under the Gov Bus without consequences". We are now locked, arm in arm over the internet, and when the wool is thrown back, revealing just how unscruplos politicians, and businesses have been, we need to protect the people who took the chance to expose these atrocities to us. We need to have a worldwide "Opt Out of Service" day, as a civil protest, by sending an explanatory email, along with not using their service for a day. We as indivdals can effectialy show our displeasure, and disdain in their participation, rather than just sitting on our hands, while they rake the people who brought it to light, over the polical and financial coals. We can do something, we have the power to help.

For instance, instead of Facebook use Myspace that day, instead of using your MasterCard use your Visa or American Express, and for Amazon.com do not even go to their website that day. And the same goes for PayPal, I don't know who their equivalent is, but they should be found, and used. Transparency in government would stop all this dirty backroom politics and business dealings once and for all. If they knew they would be held accountable for their words and deeds they would be more honest and forth right in their positions.

Not sure how much this would help. I am definitely a supporter of WikiLeaks though.

If everybody preticipated it would make a difference. Look at Eygpt, when everybody joins hands in agreement, changes are made.

I think everyone needs to join hands right here in the good ole USA to get congress' attention. (though with no violence, just peaceful protests...thousands united together taking to the streets.)
