Outdated

[edit]

There is an outdated tag on this article. How is this article outdated? Dustin (talk) 17:20, 30 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear!

[edit]

The most serious flaw is that the article does not state clearly that [1] The bill was not enacted into law. [2] There is now no manifest momentum behind enactment. [3] There are still strong forces biding their time for a ripe moment to push thru this kind of bill. GreggEdwards (talk) 20:22, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Wikipedia Blackout Screen.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on January 18, 2018. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2018-01-18. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:40, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia blackout
The Wikipedia blackout was a 24-hour period in which access to all articles on the English Wikipedia, barring those on the protested Stop Online Piracy Act and PROTECT IP Act, was suppressed. From January 18–19, 2012, visitors to the website saw only a protest message and the phrase "Imagine a world without free knowledge." It is estimated in excess of 160 million people viewed the banner, which was one of numerous protest actions undertaken at the time. The political environment regarding both bills shifted significantly following the protests, and both were removed from further voting.Image: Wikipedia

Wiki bots SOPA-style censor this article

[edit]

See the talk entries above:

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page: http://www. avaaz.org/en/save_the_internet Triggered by \ bavaaz\.org\b on the local blacklist ...

Isn't it funny metafiction trolling? Wiki bots censoring wiki article about automatic censoring of websites. Discuss please here or on my Talk page.

Update: Haha, I get

"Topic cannot be added due to unknown error". 

So preventive censorship by WP bots.

Let me try hack the URL above, thus fighting the WP tools itself so as to alert WP about WP... Zezen (talk) 08:37, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It worked only now. Censor bots do not like to be quoted, it seems. Triple meta. Zezen (talk) 08:39, 17 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
