SiteGround involves customers in a 'Stop Censorship' Campaign Opposing PIPA and SOPA legislation

SiteGround web hosting company has launched a campaign to encourage its
customers to voice their opinion about the soon-to-be-voted in the House of
Parliament PIPA bill. The goal of the campaign is to raise awareness about the
controversial legislation and to attract even more people to oppose the bill. The
SiteGround clients are invited to embed a special stamp on their websites created
by the company for the needs of the campaign and to spread the word against
SOPA and PIPA in their social media channels. The company has even created a
plugin for Joomla that will easily add the campaign stamp on Joomla websites.
SiteGround has publicly opposed the bill back in November 2011 in their company
blog and has been actively voicing their opposition in social networks ever since.
Now they go further in their SOPA opposition by trying to engage their customers.

'We believe that more people should become aware that Internet, as they know it,
is facing a serious change, more people should care and more people should
express a strong position built on principles.', says SiteGround CEO Tenko
Nikolov. 'Recently we have seen the topic being turned into a money making
technique by several other hosting companies which contradicts with our
understanding about the seriousness of the problem. Seeking profit out of such
issues, rather than putting effort in resolving them in everyone's best interest, is
least to say dangerous.' he added. 'All we want with this campaign is to
encourage our users think about the problem, make an informed and based on
principles decision, and join us in opposing the laws if they find them as
inappropriate as we do', Tenko concluded.
