[Enjin Archive] Minecraft and Wikipedia?

Anyone tried getting on today? <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>

You should all try and be against SOPA/PIPA <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>
It's against piracy right?
PIPA and SOPA are anti piracy acts that have possible far reaches and present easy avenues for abuse. Which is why so many people are against them.
It's not even fair to say it is anti-piracy. Realistically, the bills have nothing more to do with piracy than their names. No DNS filter could stop that; you could even just type the IP of the site you wanted into your browser and get past it.

It's going to do so much damage through burden of responsibility; let's say somebody decided that somebody's signature on Enjin was infringing some copyright. With these two bills, they could legally redirect any Enjin site to a government page, just because of user-submitted content.

It's a very poorly thought-out idea, and most of the very founders of the Internet and influential companies have tried to speak out against it. I'm glad that sites like Reddit got the ball rolling for the late-entries like Wikipedia and Google - look at the explosion it has caused!
4chan has joined in now <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object> Go 4chan!
But this is not the beginning! <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object> Reddit's been at work for weeks already; in one case, they made a Congressman back off of it by raising $35,000 for the guy running against him in 12 hours XD
I just find it absolutely AWSOME that minecraft is standing up to this sh*t

GO MINECRAFT
If you haven't noticed, Google has censored their image today and I read an interesting article from the CEO of I CAN HAS CHEEZBURGER... He is threatoning their host (GoDaddy, supporters of SOPA) to oppose SOPA or he will move all his domains to another host (ICANHASCHEEZEBURGER has 1000+ domains with GoDaddy)
