Black Out Your Site Against SOPA

It seems like SOPA is almost dead, but there’s still a protest alive and well planned for tomorrow. I wrote a quickie WordPress plugin that redirects any page requests to sopastrike.com/strike. I know I’m late and it’s primitive, but it gets the job done. Here’s the code:

/*
Plugin Name: Protest SOPA Plugin
Description: A simple plugin to redirect to the Sopa Strike website on page load on January 18, 2012.
Date: January 17, 2012
*/

function protest_sopa() {
  $month=date('n');
  $day=date('j');
  $year=date('Y');

  if( ($month=='1') && ($day=='18') && ($year=='2012') ) {
    header("Location: http://sopastrike.com/strike");
    exit;
  }
}

if(!is_admin()) {
  add_action('init', 'protest_sopa');
}
