What the web could look like if SOPA or PIPA passes

As I explained over on the Big Big Design site, on Wednesday 1/18/2012 I’ll be protesting the proposed PROTECT_IP act (AKA PIPA or “Protect Intellectual Property Act”) by blacking out my websites.

You can protest too, by running the blackout on your site (there’s a WordPress plugin to make it easy) and by participating in the Facebook protest.

Why all the fuss? This video explains it nicely:

Please join me in letting Congress and the world know that PROTECT_IP is not how we want the Internet to be run.
