LOL Love this blackout page. Best anti-SOPA message yet!

TheOatmeal.com blacked out in protest of SOPA / PIPA - The Oatmeal

Some of us have been living in the SOPA/PIPA age for a long time now.

if you hit ESC right after a wiki page loads you can get it to stop before bouncing you to the black screen of death

 

[awptickes]

or you can disable the style sheet in the web-dev console.

Never. Your elected officials are pressing for this.

True dat. Do you guys have your stuff setup so if the word Wikileaks shows up any where on the page it blocks it? That's always fun when I am cruising news sites. Or researching info for work and it gets blocked because of one word.

 

[awptickes]

Nah. I think they just log that kind of thing so they can screw you later, lol.

Reminds me of some of the other weird laws/fines/time out there.

Howard Stern was talking about some guy who found a nude picture of a girl online and then contacted her saying he wouldnt show it to anyone if she sent him some more pictures, if not he would post it online for everyone to see.

She went to the police and the guy got busted for it. Was sentenced to 20 years, plus reg as a sex offender since it was a sexual cyber crime and they made an example of him.

I believe Howard stern said something along the lines of next time he should just drive to her house and rape her.

Might get less time in jail.
