Imagine a World
Without Free Knowledge
Without Free Knowledge
For
over a decade, we have spent millions of hours building the largest
encyclopedia in human history. Right now, the U.S. Congress is
considering legislation that could fatally damage the free and open
Internet. For 24 hours, to raise awareness, we are blacking out
Wikipedia...
- Why is Wikipedia blacked-out?
- Wikipedia is protesting against SOPA and PIPA by blacking out the English Wikipedia for 24 hours, beginning at midnight January 18, Eastern Time. Readers who come to English Wikipedia during the blackout will not be able to read the encyclopedia: instead, you will see messages intended to raise awareness about SOPA and PIPA, and encouraging you to share your views with your elected representatives, and via social media.
