Anti-SOPA protests, glitches, or something else? I’m still trying to figure out . . .

The home page for the web series Ragged Isle showed an “official” notice: “In the aftermath of the Ragged Isle Lobster Festival tragedy, all episodic footage previously found on this site has been seized by the department of Homeland Security.” I didn’t know they investigated the deaths of fictional people; maybe they’re confused by Rick Dalton playing Rick Dalton.

Then there was the way WordPress kept crashing on me, leading me to think “This is what I get for not reading their message about how they were going to protest.”
