I was unable to sleep and wanted to look up something on Wikipedia, which is blacked out in protest of SOPA. Want to get around it? I wrote a little script to defeat the blackout. Create an empty bookmark in your preferred browser (or change an existing one). Name it whatever you want, but for the address, enter the following code as one contiguous line:

javascript:function show(){document.getElementById(“content”).style.display=’block’;document.getElementById(“mw-sopaOverlay”).style.display=‘none’;}show();

As an alternative you can simply drag this link to your Bookmarks toolbar or folder (or Favorites in Internet Explorer ): Show Wiki

Now when you goto to a specific Wiki topic and it is blacked out, click on your new bookmark and it will unhide the content.
