The most informative website of the world WIKIPEDIA is not active for 24 hours!!!!.Can you believe it???.This is been calling WIKIPEDIA BLACKOUT.
The user-created encyclopedia is one of a number of Web sites that temporarily closed at midnight on Tuesday to publicize the belief that provisions in two Congressional bills, the Stop Online Piracy Act, referred to as SOPA, as well as the Protect IP Act, or PIPA — which may require search engines to block access to sites that employ copyrighted material via links or hosting — is tantamount to censorship, among other concerns.
To protest the SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) that is gaining momentum with the U.S. lawmakers. Other Internet service giants such as Google, Facebook and Twitter have already opposed the proposed law, calling it well-intentioned but draconian in respect of the powers it gives the law enforcers.
What is your opinion???
