I think you got it backwards. Just displaying a notice is "telling." Actually shutting down is "showing" by doing.

In case it wasn't clear from my previous post: we're in agreement. Show, by taking content and services down. Tell, by putting up an explanation of SOPA and what folks can do to stop it.
