This Post Intentionally (Almost) Blank to Oppose SOPA/PIPA

This is a demonstration of what we'd be looking forward to if the SOPA/PIPA Internet blacklist bills go into effect. For a pretty good explanation that even a layperson can dig, see here. To use my "effective propaganda voice": These bills are heavy-handed special-interest bills that violate our freedoms and will kill jobs (for real!). Also, they wouldn't necessarily have any real impact on piracy, but could have a real negative effect on web security.  I'm not blacking out my blog today (um, would anyone notice?) or witholding my bloggy productivity, but I am pointing the way to EFF.org for more information and a petition you can use to contact your congresscritters.
