Except they do. Hit esc and you can hang on the page and read the material. One guess, what MSNBC is reporting today. I confess it is really frustrating to see how major networks are covering these protests.

It makes me wonder what is a legitimate protest in the eyes of the media/elite anymore. They disapprove of the OWS style. They mock blackouts on the web. What does it take for our government and mainstream reporters to respect public dissent.

Well... they do, indeed. Esc on load / no JS is all you need. Real black out would have been much better.

As somebody pointed out in another thread, the number of people that are able to circumvent the wikipedia blackout but don't already know about SOPA can probably be counted on one hand.
