Hi Joly,
The response has been great! Unfortunately, the perception here in Washington is still that those who support the bill are making headway. The hearing on SOPA was stacked 5:1 (http://judiciary.house.gov/hearings/hear_11162011.html) with only Google speaking for Internet users and companies. More Congressmen are signing up to support it, according to the Washington Post yesterday.

So, much more work is needed, including much more strategic work. I am going to be spending a lot of time thinking about what else we can do to help. If you have any ideas, please let me know (offline, please).

Best,
Kathy

I was particularly impressed by the efficacy of the tumblr campaign yesterday - logged in users were confronted by a censored version of their own blogs, and then directed to http://www.tumblr.com/protect-the-net

Tumblr reports that their advocacy push around the Stop Online Piracy Act yesterday generated 87,834 calls to representatives and a total of 1,293 hours talking to staffers on Capitol Hill
