Thank You Wikipedia, Google and the Internet Community.

You may have noticed that you can't use Wikipedia today, and Google's "censored" logo. There is a blackout, and for damn good reason.

They are protesting SOPA, and it's sister, PIPA - which amount to censorship of the Internet by the government.



I can't thank these guys enough for taking a stand.

It's certainly gotten everyone's attention -- the government as well as countless people just now learning about the the issue. Well done, Wikipedia.
