Oh, a flash protest, one that seems to have been announced with a press release only yesterday and pushed by the EFF just one hour ago.
Well, it is too short notice for me to invest the time to black out my website, so I will not be supporting this. Maybe there will be a similar action next year that I will support, if it is better advertised beforehand.

- SyneRyder 13y agoMaybe you're not on the EFF email list or Facebook group? They've been promoting this for several weeks (actually too much for my liking, so it's interesting for me to hear that others weren't aware of it).
- sekasi 13y agoCan you be any less likable if you tried? It's been advertised, you just haven't seen it. That's not entirely their fault, advertising is not free. You don't have to be all snobby about it. Sheesh.
