Drug WarRant Joins SOPA, PIPA Protest

Drug WarRant’s front page is semi-dark today, joining many other sites (including Wikipedia, Boing Boing, Reddit, Google, Mozilla) that are either dark or protesting in some way the bills being considered by Congress that would fundamentally change the infrastructure of the web.

Here’s a little tutorial on the subject.
