I see your point, but I think it is mainly because they don't want Wikipedia/etc to be de-indexed and not be #1 hit for EVERYTHING anymore. This protest is exactly that, a protest, a mere emulation of what could happen.
It's not about pretending the web is normal, its about ensuring that everything is back to normal tomorrow.
