My god...do you people not READ? It specifically states 24 hours. For one complete day, you will be unable to access Wikipedia unless you are an employee of the site. After 24 hours from its blackout, it will be up and running as usual.

heheh yea why doesn't ATS do that?

i'd be worried what if its doesn't come back after 24hr esp with SOPA and all, when would be the earliest the gov't starts censoring site access really?

It will come back

And there are numerous ways to get around the 'protest blockages' on sites such as Wikipedia.

That is true because I got around the block around 2 am on Wikipedia.

I can't wait to see what kind of impact if any these protests will have on the SOPA bill. However, I'm not holding my breath.
