On Wednesday, searchers will find a sitewide Wikipedia blackout if they go looking to research information on the Net's largest free encyclopedia. Wikipedia founder, Jimmy Wales, has announced a total shutdown of the site on Wednesday as part of a huge SOPA protest. SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) is one of two bills currently before congress as part of an effort to stop illegal copying and sharing of copyrighted content on the Internet.
