  1. We must anti SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and Protect IP (PIPA). They want to destroy Google, Facebook, Twitter, Hulu and Blog also. We’ll lost more than 70% website/blog around the WorldWideWeb! Join Us to Anti SOPA and PIPA!

  2. most sites use javascript to blackout, they can be viewed with JS disabled
    Mac seem has own app (mini browser) for Wikipedia? it doesnt run scripts, i bet

    However web looks ugly without scripts, but Wikipedia’s layout is simple enough and is not broken at all without JS

    • The build in dictionary is ads free and handy. Mac have one of these apps for – maybe since the start of Mac OS X or maybe early.

      Not available on iOS though.

      • strange, because iOS has webkit too, creating a lightweight wrapper over webkit is not that hard, … maybe marketing issues?
