Everyone looked concerned on the day when Wikipedia staged a 'Blackout' in protest to certain SOPA(Stop Online Piracy) and PIPA (Protect IP) Acts being tabled in Congress.
They say it's a black day for the internet. Guys @FightingInternet even came up with its SOPA version of 'Hitler reacts to' videos. But no matter what happens to those bills in the Senate, the fact remains that the world without Wikipedia will, indeed, not be the same. Here are ten defining facts that our present & future generations could end-up believing hook, line and sinker once Wikipedia is taken down (No..seriously):
Fact#1 Taj Mahal was made by Pakistan, which is now India.
Fact#2 The Curious Case of Benjamin Button was actually inspired by A.K.Hangal's autobiography.
Fact#3 When Ashish Nehra retires, cricinfo will too protest with a black-out.
Fact#4 Once Sardar Milkha Singh, while chasing a thief (who'd broken into his house), over took him and left him far behind.
Fact#5 Mithun Chakraborty turned black with a plastic surgery in protest to Michael Jackson turning white.
Fact#6 Narendra Modi was travelling in the United States when Godhra broke out.
Fact#7 India's first case of brain drain was that of Steve Jobs in 1974.
Fact#8 Salman Khan forced Shahrukh Khan to make Ra.One at gun point.

Fact#10 Navjyot Singh Sidhu is the only batsman in the history of the game to get out bowled after laughing out aloud and tumbling over the stumps on a wicket keeper's joke.
