I’m sure by now you must know something about this, since protests are everywhere, including on google and wikipedia. If not, feel free to read up.

Since it’s all pervasive at this point, I won’t say much. Do some research, if you don’t like it, speak out. The bottom line is the bill would allow sites to be blacked out to US citizens if claims of infringement are made against that site, or even against some of its difficult to police users, like on tumblr or reddit. This would likely mean instant censorship of massive parts of the internet for US users. Kind of like throwing tons of innocent people in prison just to be sure a few criminals wind up in there too.

If you’re like me, you probably get kind of ticked when these ridiculous ancient men in congress, who have no clue at all how the internet works, get together and decide how the internet should be for everybody. So feel free to let them know.

I’m blacking out all pages on the site, except those posted today and yesterday, for 24 hours. I’m only leaving the recent ones up to provide context for the little blackout gag.

See you after the nap!

edit:

If you don’t know what I mean by the gag, wait for the full fadeout at the end of this page. It’ll redirect to the strike page. The redirect will be taken down after the blackout.
