On January 18th we’re standing in solidarity with thousands of other sites and individuals to protest SOPA. This action is rather unique because it has unified organizations across the political spectrum and caused technology companies simply providing a service to interrupt that service to tell their users about the dangers of this bill. Most of the participants here have sat on the sidelines, even through important debates like the FCC ruling on net neutrality and debating wireless spectrum.
I’m probably not going to provide any insight about this fight that you haven’t already read, so we’ll stick with what we do best here. I wanted to share a few pieces that I felt made the case for joining the protest and/or articulated the issue in an interesting way.
