Wikipedia, BoingBoing, WordPress, Reddit, Wired, and many others have all gone dark to protest the House’s so-called Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and its Senate equivalent, the Protect IP Act (PIPA). Here is a video explaining why these bills are so dangerous. Here is a handy reference guide (in PDF form) generated by some fine people at Reddit before they went dark. Here is a website with even more information and a convenient form to contact your members of Congress. Please do so. Not that it has anywhere near the same impact on your life (though it’d be nice if it did), but this site won’t be posting anything else today.
