IMG_4695 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! A Flickr user has darkened this photo for up to 24 hours as a symbolic gesture to raise awareness about the potential impact of two pieces of pending U.S. anti-piracy legislation - SOPA (The Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (The Protect IP Act). While the inclusion of this blackout screen is merely a symbolic gesture — not an actual allegation that this photo violates any copyright — a user wanted you to take note of the harmful impact these bills could have on innovation online.
