STRIKE!!!

Today, January 18th, a massive internet strike is being held across the globe to protest the potential passing of the restrictive bill, Stop Online Piracy, or SOPA by US Congress. Check out google or wikipedia’s webpage if you don’t believe us. Material World supports this protest against internet freedom. The NYU blogging service is basically opaque to us, but we will not be posting any content today in support of the strike.
To find out more about SOPA – you can follow any of these links (tomorrow):
