discussion web site Reddit will close down for one day this month to protest against the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and Protect-IP Act (PIPA).
Discussions about the SOPA and PIPA legislation proposed in the US Congress have been popular on Reddit, and the web site’s principals have made their opposition clear.
The web site will not go down, but rather than showing lively discussions it will show a message warning about SOPA as well as advice on what people can do if they want to oppose it.
