In less than 7 DAYS the Senate will vote on SOPA/PIPA. Currently, only six senators oppose it, but we need 40 in order to ensure it doesn’t get passed. Now, more than ever, we need people to take a stand against SOPA/PIPA.
- Want to stop SOPA/PIPA but don’t know how? This website is a great place to start.
- If you have somehow managed to remain completely in the dark about SOPA/PIPA (or maybe you just want some more detailed information) there’s an infographic and a video about what it is and why we don’t want it.
- Learn all about the strike currently going on and what you can do to get involved. You can also see the list of participants, which ranges from Google to Reddit to A Softer World.

Internet Blackout of the Day: The Great Wikipedia Blackout of 2012 has begun.
Reddit, TwitPic, Mozilla, Mojang, and thousands of others will soon follow suit. The Internet is officially on strike! Why? Because the House and Senate are conspiring with the entertainment industry to break the Internet.
Make no mistake: SOPA has not been shelved. And a vote on PIPA is just around the corner. Luckily, hundreds of companies, charities, and notable individuals with strong moral character have joined forces to stop these dangerous Big Brother bills from moving forward.
The fight is far from over, but hopefully today’s blackout will help bring this important matter to the attention of folks who rely on the Internet for entertainment and education, but have so far remained oblivious to SOPA and PIPA and their harmful consequences.
Do your part. Take action. Stop SOPA and PIPA and put an end to threat of Internet censorship.
