I tried to black out my avatar (but I screwed it up...must be tired) as part of a protest against the absurd new law in NZ which allows for users to be permanently disconnected from the internet on the mere accusation of copyright infringement: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/juha/6247.

By this act our politicians demonstrate their utter contempt of fundamental legal principles in obscene eagerness to do whatever their corporate masters ask of them.

The might as well hang a red light outside Parliament (so that's the reason they decriminalised prostitution...)
