I'm sure there's lots of threads in Hellfire on this, but for sane people that don't go there, lots of sites blacked out today! I especially like Wikipedia's implementation.

The only site I've seen acknowledge the blackout is Google, an that's just a black banner over their logo.

Oh, wait, there's a black bar over slashdots logo too.

I've seen wikipedia, reddit, minecraft, animenewsnetwork, slashdot, google, some webcomics, and some anime blogs. Only wikipedia and minecraft are completely inaccessible.

I blacked out my blog, so this whole SOPA/PIPA thing should blow over any second now.

If you really need to access something on Wikipedia today, just disable javascript.
