I'll tell all my friends about this. Here in Germany, you never heard about it. I didn't know about it until I read it on deviantArt.com today. And it shocked me. How could I have missed this?
That's something that doesn't only affect the Americans, it affects us all. If this comes through, we will all lose a lot of websites (the Americans even more).
I'm afraid of the day when this happens T.T (hopefully never)

I'm in the US and I just heard of this! I find it pretty scary :?
I'll probably black out once I can access a decent computer later today..

Trying to get every cat on cs, if you would like to help out it would be greatly appreciated <3

I don't see how ME personally blacking out my signature will help. Something as big as google or wikipedia though? That will definately raise awareness.
I gotta find a list of who is supporting this thing...
EDIT: bad news is that I'm having trouble learning about the bill, because all the sites are blacked out. That's a paradox, isn't it?

I've been told that SOPA is going to delete every website with copyright infragments, including websites like CS, Warrior Forums, and Youtube.
This doesn't only affect America; it affects the whole world.
