And if you don't give a shit about anything else and just want your damned secret post because fandom is all you care about, you should read this:

I love the people commenting on the "secrets". Many laughs.

So good. I had my tumblr blocked with a message that would get people to send a message to their congresscritters, and on google+ today, I only posted SOPA/PIPA stuff until I posted so much that I triggered the spambot filter over there and had to sit out for hours...

MeFi had a blackbox pop-up, but they didn't shut the site down - I think that was a nice compromise =) In the MeTa thread about the protests, someone linked to the @herpderpedia Twitter account, with all the idiots on Twitter who couldn't figure out why the hell Wikipedia was down EVEN THOUGH ITS SAYS WHY RIGHT ON THE PAGE.

I just. It makes me lose my faith in humanity, LOL :P

I suspect that after the first "OMG, how am I gonna do my homework" by self-absorbed teens, the rest were people posting doing it for the LULZ...or reposting what other people said, just to be part of the crowd.

Tumblr didn't make you block your page, but since my Tumblr's mostly used for political postings, I felt it was a good thing to do. Yeah, although I don't actually do much editorializing, I manage to keep a Klout score in the 60s cause I do news curating big time...MamaKK, seecrit political & sci/tech news junkie and fanfic writer. Who woulda ever expected that combination?
