What happened to my blog?
UPDATE
Internet Blackout NZ is thus far successful. We successfully delayed changes to Section 92A for 4 weeks! I expect, and we are all hopeful, that this will give the new government time to fully understand their #$@%-up, and dismiss the law change entirely.

It's a blackout!
In response to the proposal of the worlds harshest copyright infringement laws, many are protesting with a blackout. Not sure what my website used to look like?
Do you think it's fair that your internet can be disconnected if your provider suspects you might have downloaded copyright-infringing material, without proof?
