<div>Ahoi!</div><div><br></div>Yeah I don't think there's much sense to a website geared towards European or South American or Australian citizens. In the US I think the PPs of Massachusetts and Ohio are the most active, while they disbanded the national party alltogether (imagine us Europeans having started with a European on instead of the national ones). It would make sense to raise awareness and write a news item on the front page with links to blacked out websites, but I don't think the average visitor of any PP site other the ones in the US is likely to be in a position<div>

<div class="im">> TL;DR: Who would opt for a blackout strike on 18th of January against<br>
> SOPA? or should it be later? see <a href="http://sopastrike.com/" target="_blank">http://sopastrike.com/</a> for details<br>
<br>
</div>There should be a call for action from the pirates in US.<br>
I wont suggest to black a german local pirate page or my homepage, since<br>
the topic is still to much US specific, even if it concerns all of us.<br>
<br>
The <a href="http://pp-international.net" target="_blank">pp-international.net</a> is currently linking to:<br>
<a href="http://www.pirate-party.us/" target="_blank">http://www.pirate-party.us/</a> which is already on a kind of strike. :-\<br>
<br>
The <a href="http://us.pirate.is/" target="_blank">http://us.pirate.is/</a> is not really active.<br>
<br>
So i suggest we, members of ppi, start pushing us-pirates into existence<br>
and then to become political activist and then go on strike. ,-)<br>
<br>
In that order. >:-)<br>
<br>
Anyway i suggested <a href="http://wikipedia.org" target="_blank">wikipedia.org</a> to go on strike.<br>
<br>
I say 42, Martin Rieth<br>
