your javascript isn't working for me, however the pressing 'escape' as the page loads does work!
Either way doesn't really affect the protest, I obviously still support it, even if I now can sneakily see the english content.

if i can say anything.. it is that liberty has always and will always be in jeopardy. the people need to fully admit and become fully aware of the dangers that arise from directly legitimized and authorized governments.. this is a story so ...true in history that it is predictable like clockwork .. given the popularity of being anti-SOPA, i want to stress that the tyrants who create these bills, working on behalf of corporate and other mysterious interests, are not doing so because of demand from society... its just bad! and this isn't just about SOPA.. this fight against our liberties takes place everyday by the same people we elected to protect our liberties.. a controversy to say the least! in fact, why are the same people who are claiming that terrorists are trying to take away our freedom, introducing and supporting these bills?! anybody willing to compromise our liberty is a fucking scumbag terrorist! but proof nonetheless that these powerful direct democracies are seriously dangerous given they always compromise our liberties on behalf of security.. a trick learned by the creators of fear and propoganda. --- let's put responsibility back into the hands of the people.. let us be free and make our own choices in life.. and properly serve justice against the true tyrants in this world - the co-conspiring government, military, and corporate officials who keep introducing acts that violate civil liberties, start wars, and throne banks... Ask yourself this: if Justice isn't supposed to protect Liberty - then what purpose is it? this is serious btw - i appreciate our support against SOPA and big brother government! now we need to get more support to repeal all the other anti-liberty acts that have already been put into law while noone was paying attention! remember? you were all surfing the internet and weren't paying attention.. but you were today!! lol</rant>

The oatmeal too. I wonder how many designers are being made to jump on the band wagon as we speak?

i also believe in the power of protest.. i would like to recognize google, wiki, reddit, and others in a real protest today.. and all of you signing the petition. with so much powerful cultural influence of these companies, it would be nice... if we saw this more often. Anyway, hopefully it showed the mainstream people that opposing government legislation isn't taboo, nor does it imply that you're a loony because you fear and distrust your government's intenion. checking big government and illegitimizing centralized power can be popular and participatory and truly representative.. and protests are in many ways the best form of that! Cheers to protest and cheers to you!

FYI, the links to SOPA and PIPA still work on Wikipedia, so you can read up on what all the fuss is about:
