Google to Display Anti-SOPA Message During Blackout
CNET quotes a Google spokeswoman as explaining the rationale this way:
“Like many businesses, entrepreneurs and web users, we oppose these bills because there are smart, targeted ways to shut down foreign rogue websites without asking American companies to censor the Internet. So tomorrow we will be joining many other tech companies to highlight this issue on our US home page.”
Short of an actual Google blackout, or maybe some kind of action by Facebook, this is the single best development protesters could possibly hope for.
