Some of your favourite sites are taking a hiatus today. Why? In protest of SOPA /PIPA. What's that, you ask? Well, it's an anti-piracy bill they're trying to pass in the US. It all comes down to internet censorship/ control. Even Facebook, Twitter, Soundcloud and Blogs would be affected if this law is passed. Here's a helpful video to explain what it's all about.
PROTECT IP / SOPA Breaks The Internet from Fight for the Future on Vimeo.
The US is most affected by this right now, but it's just a matter of time before, like a bad rash, this spreads.
So a special thanks to Wikipedia, fark.com, odditycentral.com, and all the other sites out there in internet land who are taking the time to stand up against these censorship boards.
Hey SOPA/PIPA... guess what? :P
