    Thumbs up

    Wikipedia, Google, and many other sites have gone down for the rest of the day in protest.

    Let's hope our Congresscriters get the message and don't stop the free flow of information.

    FUCK SOPA, FUCK PIPA!

    Here's a handy link to contact your Legislators and let them know that you oppose these freedom-killing bills:

    The Electronic Frontier Foundation has been on the fore-front of keeping the Internet open and free, and always speaks up whenever these fascist authoritarian bills come down the pike.

    This is what Google looks like this morning.



    It's working but they encourage the users of the site to tell Congress not to censor the web.
