> Why is this a global action, rather than US-only? And why now, if some American legislators appear to be in tactical retreat on SOPA?

> The reality is that we don’t think SOPA is going away, and PIPA is still quite active. Moreover, SOPA and PIPA are just indicators of a much broader problem. All around the world, we’re seeing the development of legislation seeking to regulate the Internet in other ways while hurting our online freedoms. Our concern extends beyond SOPA and PIPA: they are just part of the problem. We want the Internet to remain free and open, everywhere, for everyone.

> On January 18, we hope you’ll agree with us, and will do what you can to make your own voice heard.
