Is TK going to be apart of the Internet Strike

[Shazam14]

In memory of Martin Luther King Jr., I support passive resistance. That being said, you bet your biscuits I'm going to participate.

Don't have to worry about any of that anymore, guys. As of yesterday, SOPA has been essentially shut down.

Got this in an e-mail

Tomorrow, January 18th, 2012, will be the largest internet protest in history. Thousands of sites across the internet, including some of the biggest in the world, will be blacking out and directing people to contact Congress to kill the web censorship bill, SOPA and PIPA. We want to get you involved.

Join us on the historic day by blacking out your site. Copy the code below and paste it into the header of your theme (Wordpress users: use the SOPA Strike plugin) to black your site out in protest of SOPA/PIPA. It will activate automatically on Jan. 18th, displaying this page and directing visitors to contact Congress, and will deactivate at the end of the day.

<script type="text/javascript">var a=new Date,b=a.getHours()+a.getTimezoneOffset()/60;if(18==a.getDate()&&0==a.getMonth()&&2012==a.getFullYear()&&13<=b&&24>=b)window.location="http://sopastrike.com/strike";</script>

In just 7 days, the Senate will vote on forever altering the free and open internet by instituting a new regime of extra-judicial, corporate-led website takedowns. This is a fundamental fight about who has power in society -- the people with the means to communicate freely or the governments and corporations that feel threatened.

For the full state of play on the censorship bills, take a look at this infographic we've put together. Click here. The clock is ticking, and we're still 35 senators short of the number we need to kill the bill.

It looks like a lot of sites are going on strike, AVPGalaxy is currently down at the moment as well.

[Hedorah]

Over 7000 sites are participating today.

F'n Wikipedia is as well. Either they didn't hear the news or they really want to drive the point home so this isn't brought up again every year (a waste of time as lobbyist are still gonna bribe politicians every year to support these bills in exchange for funded elections).

[Svitska Donkun]

If this Bill passes, the internet no longer serves a purpose.

I won't pass. It never had a chance. It just has a lot of hype to freak people out. When the President says that he won't support it, you can bet it'll be vetoed.

Use google, search for what you want and when you see the Wiki link, click it and hit escape as soon as the page starts to load over. It'll stop it from going to black. Wiki has been pissing me off lately with this shit - and their donation shit.

[Svitska Donkun]

They don't have to provide you with free information on EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD, you know...

[TheSecondComing]

Especially when there's a 50%* chance it's erroneous anyway.

* either it is, or it isn't and there's no way to know for sure.

[wataru]

What bugs me about wiki's donation shit is the window doesnt appear until like 1-2 seconds after the page fully loads. What theyre wanting you to do is perhaps hit 'disambiguation' and OOPS! Not fast enough, you clicked the plea from blah blah..

[Rody]

^ Yeah, it's annoying, but be thankful we have this kind information available to us at ALL.

I'm very happy SOPA isn't happening.

[Gyaos]

Now all we have to worry about is PIPA....

Now all we have to worry about is PIPA....

I seen that Google has a voting link on it's site. Did anybody else get one?
It's suppose to be about the bill https://www.google.com/landing/takeaction/

It seems like black bars have been appearing over the internet. Not just facebook but on forums like AVPGalaxy as well.
