This is due to a bill called SOPA/PIPA
Many websites today are opposing it. Because right now it is being considered in Congress.
The bill is a censorship bill, and basically takes away our right to freedom of speech.
If the bill is enacted, it can and most likely will put an end to websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Wikipedia, Google, and even Witty.
That is why so many people are opposing it, and websites like Wikipedia have completely shut down.
This bill says that you cannot reproduce anything with a copyright...or else its considered a copyright infridgement.
This includes
- covering a song on youtube
- making gif's on tumblr
- reproducing material on wiki
- pictures/quotes on wiki
- song lyrics cannot be reposted
