Can we take action against MPAA like we are against GoDaddy?

It looks like the GoDaddy action worked pretty well to get the attention of the US congress. The judiciary committee has now concealed their list of supporters.

I suppose they realize that it's doing them (congress and the SOPA supporters ) far more harm than they're trying to fix.

Here's how we can continue to get their attention. This is harder than transferring domains from registry to registry, but it's also economically more noticeable.

Do two things. (1) stay home from the movies from December 24th to December 27th. (2) call or write your congressperson and tell her / him that you stayed home from the movies and why. Mention the name of the movie you decided not to see.

How to find your congress person.

Gizmodo still has the list the congress concealed.
