It looks like for the most part we (the net) won!

I used the stop SOPA plugin. I wanted to create a page with the video and infographics from the American censorship site, but didn't get time to do that. So plugin it it...

Showing the message and not blocking traffic. Today is a special day for me where I already have broken biggest traffic record at around 11:30, long day still to go. Powered by a simple dollar round up inclusion. I can't afford to block site today.

I'll just have to manually take it down tonight. I think it looks pretty snazzy Smile

It was using the wrong timezone or something. But, it should be down again tomorrow. :)

 

This plugin is using 307 temporary redirects for anyone curious.

It took two times for me.

 

My site will be SOPA-only tomorrow. :)

And I hate this whole big brother idea.  I'm not in Cuba, I'm in America!

I am going to check that out. Might be less risky than mucking around in the .htaccess

<script type="text/javascript" src="//js.sopablackout.org/sopablackout.js"></script>

 

In headway, put it in the "Before everything" easy hook and you're done.

Be careful with .htaccess redirects.  Make sure it's a 302, so you're not telling Google to give away your link juice permanently.
