I somehow feel bad about being able to access it now :).

Tell people that this is what it will be like to access information online if anything like SOPA passes.

I wonder if a lot of people are going to be searching for "how to access wikipedia" now? Pity it will be too late by tomorrow, or you could inform them yet again. Oh well.

I think Wikipedia still gets to make its point if you have to pepper in some JavaScript or CSS to get back to it. Much more work than your standard interstitial.

This is the best point to make: the SOPA will only stop people who don't know how to get around it, just like the Wiki blackout. That is precisely to point to be made here.

I voted for the blackout, so I feel obliged to let myself be inconvenienced by it. 3 times already in the first 40 minutes.
