Blacking out completely is just about the most dumbest thing you can do.

Why not fill your ads with SOPA/PIPA related items. Why not put info in the header.

That is of not much use to the user. By blacking out the whole page, users are now forced to read about the Reddit's stand against SOPA and PIPA which people might miss if Reddit follows your suggestion. Even people ignorant about SOPA and PIPA will read this and get a clear understanding about it

blaking out it's the right move to make common people get what will happen soon.
