PF going black on January 18th?

Many parts of the bill have already been retracted.

DNS filtering has not yet been removed from PIPA.

In the Senate, a vote on PIPA is still scheduled for Jan. 24, but it's a procedural matter (a Senate staffer, asking not to be named, said it's "on whether to debate debating the bill"). Sen. Patrick Leahy, the Vermont Democrat who was one of the original sponsors, has said he would like to amend the bill.

"I will … propose that the positive and negative effects of this provision be studied before implemented, so that we can focus on the other important provisions in this bill," Leahy said, "which are essential to protecting American intellectual property online, and the American jobs that are tied to intellectual property."

But if you read the article turbo posted, it too wil be revised.

I personally feel that PF should join the protests against SOPA or PIPA. It will be a very difficult day though

I am strongly against this bill. I say we can blackout the site or atleast put something noticeable on the home page regarding SOPA and PIPA (like what Google is doing). If we do blackout the site, I say we have a chat day in chatzy! This bill cannot simply be ignored by PF.

@Evo: Even though most of the criticized provisions are taken out, the bill in general still needs much more work to be done to fix the bill and pass the law.

Edit: Grammar fail...

I have one better Ivan, have Greg turn the background black with bold white lettering that way I can appreciate my partial grapheme color synesthesia, (all the letters turn light pink and green, depending on the letter being drawn). I can live with that, I think...

Rhody...

You don't want to know what pipa means in Polish.
