    With Minecraft just passing 20 million users, this will bring large attention to SOPA. Gamers who would otherwise not care about the bill will now notice that their favorite sandbox game is offline and it will spark interest in the gaming community as a whole.

    It doesn't really matter, it's a matter of time before they create another one.

SOPA Blackout: Wikipedia, Google, Wired Protest 'Internet Censorship' - 0 views

    Go to Wikipedia's English home page and it will look like its regular self for a second, but then -   Wikipedia's English-language landing page. Go to Google's homepage, and you'll find its logo blacked out. If you click on the black box in its place (or the link below the search box), you'll be led to an invitation to petition Congress: "End Piracy, Not Liberty."   Google's homepage.

    This shows exactly how uncivilized the middle east is and just how messed up their judicial system is!

    This is awful! The death sentence is a little much..

    the united nations should throw out a warning at these guys.
