Websites blackout in protest of SOPA and ProtectIP censorship

Many sites are blacked out today in support of banishing SOPA and ProtectIP.

Here are some front page examples of sites participating in the protest:

sopa-protest-wired1

sopa-protest-wikipedia1

sopa-protest-reddit1

sopa-protest-google1

tucows doesn’t like SOPA and they’ve dedicated their front page to stand against this type of censorship.

The proposed SOPA (and equally odious “Protect IP Act“) legislation is fundamentally flawed in how it works and the damage it is likely to do to the Internet, which has been the greatest platform for innovation the world has ever seen…

[The] legislation itself is fundamentally corrupt. It is bought and paid for by big media, trying vainly to protect anachronistic business models. This has been demonstrated clearly in all of the hearings and the very conduct of the debate. Listening to how deeply uninformed those being asked to legislate this issue are has been nothing short of scary.
