  http://www.sopastrike.com/ has █████ resources, but the most effective protesting will have to come from US citizens telling Congress to █████

  Thanks for the http://www.sopastrike.com link, Mark. It seems their (nginx) server is getting too much hits at this moment. But it's good to know there's a easy way for people to easily send their voice to the Congress.

  btw, the sopastrike.com site is created by the group fightforthefuture.org , which is using the service from a Canadian company contactprivacy.com to hide its contact info. just to give an idea.

  And after some more digging, found another easy way (for US people) to voice against SOPA

  https://blacklists.eff.org/

  from the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

  sorry, i was wrong. Wikipedia does provide a (better) way to voice.

  after sharing on G+, the page will ask for your zip.

  and after entering the zip, it'll provide the info of the elected representative for the area.

  depending on how 'online/social' these officials are, their contact info include their phone no, email, and twitter, etc.

  Thanks Mary - finally a way for non-US citizens to directly participate.

  And here's another: a global petition to the Obama administration to veto SOPA:
