Game developer Red 5 Studios has gone offline in protest against SOPA and PIPA. A temporary page, set to be replaced on Thursday, currently greets users with reasons why SOPA will be bad news for the gaming industry. For one, the bill would stop the free flow of user-generated content. It also has the potential to shut down the streaming of games and e-Sports. On a broader scale, it inhibits free speech and places “broad powers to control the internet in the hands of corporations and the government.”
But Red 5 Studios' Blackout Day protest doesn't stop there.
