By all accounts, the Internet’s first politically motivated mass work-stoppage on Wednesday was a rousing success, and so far [URL="http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2012/01/pipa-support-collapses-with-13-new-opponents-in-senate.ars"]13 19 U.S. Senators have flipped their stance[/URL] on pending anti-piracy legislation that critics say would severely harm the freedom of speech online.
