Seems the hacker group Anonymous crashed a few site today in response to arrests made in New Zealand. Websites included RIAA, Justice.gov among others.

Can't attach link since I'm on my phone, maybe someone can help me out.

No Skype?

We Skyped with our Chinese vendors back in about '08, it was pretty pathetic as their ISP didn't have a vewry fast service.

I'm heard from him, who heard from someone... maybe the game of telephone got confused.  

I just googled it, and apparently they can shut it down if you type in certain words or phrases which aren't aloud.  

The story I heard was that a girl he knew was Skyping with another friend about finding a Jewish temple in Shanghai to observe some holy day, and she was blocked all of a sudden.

I have no first hand experience though.  I'm sure he will report back once he moves there.

the devil always resides in the details....

your link pretty much underscores that the impetus for this legislation has the stench of red herring all over it....

the question becomes...what is really the target of the initiatives?
This is an insult to the Pez community

These Anonymous actions aren't as a protest against SOPA/PiPA  - they are in retaliation for the shutting down of megauploads.com for piracy, copyrights infringements etc etc.  I'm shocked it took the feds this long to shut that site down. But the DOS attacks on the DOJ site, RIAA etc aren't part of the SOPA/PIPA protests going on - they are just coincidentally timed.
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

Didn't say they were.

Just posted a link for someone on a phone.
