As We Encourage Wikipedia To Protest The Internet Blacklist Bills (PIPA and SOPA) By Going Black Next Week
Wikipedia is considering "going black" to protest Internet censorship legislation pending before Congress. Wikipedia is a non-profit organization, and if enough Internet users pledge to donate at least $1 to Wikipedia, it will reduce the burden on them if they choose to join the protests. Demand Progress -- the organization running this campaign -- will update you once Wikipedia makes a final decision.
If Wikipedia goes through with a blackout, we'll alert everyone who pledged to donate and give them instructions about how to do so; at this time we're collecting pledges to donate, not donations. (This campaign is being run by Demand Progress, which has no formal affiliation with Wikipedia, but is thoroughly supportive of its work and mission.)
