Good morning,

something my fellow Wikimedians shared with me and which I'd like to
bring to your attention. An analysis of the impact of last Wednesday's
internet blackout in order to protest against the SOPA / PIPA drafts in
the US.

Might be a bit off-topic here but I believe it shows nicely the impact
society and communities can have:
