SOPA/PIPA Blackouts

Several websites have gone dark (or partially dark) today in protest of the SOPA/PIPA legislation before the U.S. Congress.

Google is participating.  As well as Wikipedia with a link to their articles about SOPA/PIPA.

The most visited blog on the Internet – Whatever by John Scalzi – went dark as well.

I’ve signed the petition and e-mailed my representatives.  Have you?
