## Description

The plugin adds small protest box to your website. By default it’s collapsed, but
once clicked, the “Stop SOPA” box appears.

On settings page you can specify the position of the protest box: either at the 
right bottom corner or at the middle right edge.
 You also can turn on/off “Blackout
Day” option. In this case website will show black screen (click demo link below 
to view the screenshot) and return 503 status (no problems with search engines) 
on 18th January 2012, 8:00AM – 8:00PM (server time).

By placing this box on our WordPress websites we are protesting against of SOPA.
