This morning, online photo sharing site Flickr joined the growing number of web companies protesting theSOPA and PIPA legislation, which now include Google, Wikipedia, Reddit, Mozilla, and others. For a 24-hour period, starting today, Flickr is letting its members darken their own photos in an effort to raise awareness about the proposed, highly damaging legislation. But that's not all - Flickr is going a step further, and will allow users to darken other members' photos, too. Now that's what censorship really feels like.
