    SOPA Blackout

    http://www.examiner.com/tampa-top-news- ... es-planned

    Ive heard about this everywhere on the net, so i just googled an article about it. I have also heard that many other sites, and game developers, are planning to go dark on Wednesday. Just posting this as a heads up really, but what do you guys think about this?

    Just a disclaimer, while i do like that websites are doing this, i am not trying to suggest that TKC partake in this, there isnt much to accomplish there.

    All I've heard is that Razr is going to take their website down and place a picture of the members with a large screen behind them saying "FUCK SOPA"

    Wikipedia will be blacked out in 9 hours.
    Google is joining the protest, but will not be blacking out. they will be putting links on the home page to make people more aware of SOPA and PIPA

    That's the exact point they want to make.

    Re: SOPA Blackout

    Look at this list. Daaaaayum.

    http://www.reddit.com/r/SOPA/comments/o ... confirmed/

    Even Minecraft servers are confirmed for the blackout tomorrow.

    EDIT

    Wikipedia is down (the English version). Minecraft.net is down as well. Google looks like this. I laughed pretty hard:

    Re: SOPA Blackout

    also guys, if you own web domains on Godaddy, you might want to change, since they support SOPA. In fact, thousands of domain names have been transferred already.
