I was surprised that twitter and FB didn't do something as well. As much as I love those sites, I'm kinda disappointed in them that they didn't do it.

These bills are quite scary. When government has too much power (it's taken from the people) they tends to abuse it.

Hey sis! Thank you for this timely post. You are right about twitter and facebook. I also liked how the english Wikipedia blacked out. It made us - me at least - realize how much we do take the freedom of internet for granted in the Western world. In addition, it made me remember those in other parts of the world that do not have such liberty.
