For over a decade, we have spent millions of hours building the largest encyclopedia in human history. Right now, the U.S. Congress is considering legislation that could fatally damage the free and open Internet. For 24 hours, to raise awareness, we are blacking out Wikipedia. Learn more.
Reddit is shutting down in 4 hours time as well lol

Pretty gnarly stuff, makes you realize how serious this is if they actually passed this bogus excuse to censor the internet.
I personally think this piracy bit is just a front for what they have been doing since AOL and that give corporations control over the internet.
My next question is how hard would it be to create another internet?
