SOPA/PIPA Protests Bring the Web to a Halt

Quite impressed by the scale of the anti-SOPA/PIPA movements that have spread across the web like a blacked-out wildfire.

The Oatmeal has a fantastic little animated GIF that explains things well.

 

There’s also a nicely done video that talks about the bills and why they need to be stopped in their tracks.

And of course sites like Wired.com and Google.com and Wikipedia.org have blacked themselves out. I think Congress is getting the picture. Thanks, devoted fans and friends of an open internet.
