Wiki is down

Imagine a World
Without Free Knowledge
For over a decade, we have spent millions of hours building the largest encyclopedia in human history. Right now, the U.S. Congress is considering legislation that could fatally damage the free and open internet. For 24 hours, to raise awareness, we are blacking out Wikipedia.

If you press escape before the page fully loads and black outs, you can still view the page :joker:

Thomas Jefferson once said the price of freedom is eternal vigilance so here's hoping this raises a lot more vigilance.

You can still use Wikipedia if you just use the mobile version of the site, change the url to m.wikipedia.org

Marc 18-01-2012 12:52 PM

Or when wikipedia loads, for the few seconds that it actually shows up before that message comes up just press Esc

MTVN 18-01-2012 12:53 PM
