Get around the Wikipedia Blackout

 

30 minutes ago I loaded up Wikipedia only to be blocked from accessing any content. Well after looking a little closer, I found it to be pretty straightforward to bypass it. My belief is that blacking out a global website for one nations policy choices seems pretty silly to me. I’m for Wikipedia; against SOPA.

Steps:

1. Find the wiki page via google
2. When the page loads and the black overlay appears, copy/paste this text into the URL bar:
3. javascript:$(‘#content’).show();$(‘#mw-sopaOverlay’).hide();

 

Enjoy wikipedia during the blackout!
