While the Internet blacked itself out to protest the Stop Online Piracy Act today, a group of local Internet luminaries gathered at City Hall to protest the bill and it's PIPA Senate bill counterpart. In attendance were Venture Capitalist and Mayor Ed Lee supporter Ron Conway, City Supervisor/reformed tech company worker David Chiu, and too legit search engine revolutionary MC Hammer.
