The weekend, the US Government seized the domains Torrent-Finder.com, RapGodFathers.com, Dajaz1.com and MySmash.com on the grounds of willful copyright infringement. Is this the start of the US Government censoring the internet? Or am I paranoid?
Speaking of Internet Censorship:
Congress is proposing a law that would force ISPs to block access to a list of specific sites that they specify or allow them to seize domains (like above) without due process.

Please act to keep the internet free and open for all.

So I decided to take matters into my own hands, and create my own scheduled backups.
UPDATE: Remember to ALWAYS make a backup of your files regularly and especially before doing any automation work (like this tutorial).
