flip Wikipedia confirms it will go offline
Today, the Wikipedia community announced its decision to black out the English-language Wikipedia for 24 hours, worldwide, beginning at 05:00 UTC on Wednesday, January 18 (you can read the statement from the Wikimedia Foundation here). The blackout is a protest against proposed legislation in the United States—the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the U.S. House of Representatives, and the PROTECTIP Act (PIPA) in the U.S. Senate—that, if passed, would seriously damage the free and open Internet, including Wikipedia.

It's not Wednesday January 18th yet.

Does anyone know of a complete list of major sites set to shut down in protest?

Someday...

...I'll fight in the kumite and make my father proud.

5:00 UTC is 12:00am midnight Eastern standard. So roughly 24 hours from now it'll go down.

WONDERFUL news!!!...

Hopefully that rat trap POS site can be kept off-line "permanently"..

It's done nothing but contribute to the decline in intelligence since it's inception...

Good Riddance!!!! Lmao

I have a solution. I'm going dark at the end of the week.

Why pay? I'll use the library to catch up on certain sites goings on.

They can pay and I can do other stuff like get out more often chuckle
