ネット関係のニュースでいまホットなのはアメリカのSOPA法の話題でしょうね。日本時間の午後くらいからアメリカ版のWikipediaを始めとしてストライキがはじまってるみたい。
What is it to begin with? This article was the easiest to understand.
ウィキペディア英語版１日閉鎖で話題になっているSOPAとは何か（広瀬隆雄） – BLOGOS（ブロゴス） http://blogos.com/article/29696/
I would like to take the liberty of excerpting some of the contents of the article.
SOPAとはStop Online Piracy Act（オンライン海賊行為阻止法案）の頭文字を取ったアクロニム（略称）で、正式には去年１０月２６日に提出された下院法案第3,261号を指します。この法案を起草したのはテキサス州の共和党議員、ラマール・スミスです。同法案には１２名の議員がスポンサーとして連名しています。
This bill would apply U.S. law to copyright violations that occur outside the United States, primarily in China. It can be applied not only to the infringement of intellectual property rights but also to the crackdown on counterfeit goods.
Well, I don’t know if I feel that it’s too much.
Still, it’s more interesting than you might think to see the strike pages on various sites.
まずは話題のWikipedia：http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
That’s very cool.
Here’s what Google had to say about it.
The service seems to work, though.
あとちょっとプラグイン関係でwordpress.orgにアクセスしたら、このようなページが。
Speaking of WordPress, they already have a plugin for the SOPA strike….
Amazing. And only this page can be viewed as usual, other pages under wordpress.org can’t be viewed (lol).
It is certainly very understandable that they are protesting for freedom of expression.
がしかし、不便だよう…
I was going to write another article, but there were so many sites on strike that I decided to write this one (laughs) Well, I’m sure things will be back to normal tomorrow.
