Blackouts and SOPA/PIPA

Today's the day a whole bunch of sites (Google, Wikipedia, etc.) go on blackout to protest the ridiculous bullshit of SOPA ("Stop Online Piracy Act") and PIPA ("Protect Intellectual Property Act").

I must admit I'm curious to see if all this protesting will actually make headway against the seemingly-inpenetrable bubble of stupidity that is Congress.

I hope so.
