In it, they talk about how Washington (politically speaking) feel like they "lost" to the SOPA/PIPA protesters because they where backed by "internet giants" like Google and Wikipedia. They figured, as long as they keep these giants happy, things will work out just fine.
I believe yesterday proved them right. No real internet-giants where involved in this protest, and I don't think it will have caused any politician to change their minds.
Sometimes, I am remembered what a sad state of affairs todays politics are.
