Our Senator Ron Wyden is doing his part to stop SOPA—the incredibly inane bill that would cripple the Internet we know and love—but what can you, ordinary concerned citizen do?

Well, you can change your Twitter avatar to reflect your Stop SOPA leanings, for one thing.

That’s right. You can join thousands of others on Twitter to protest SOPA. And it only takes a few seconds.

Here’s how it works.

  1. Visit Blackout SOPA
  2. Use Twitter OAuth to log in
  3. Add a “Stop SOPA” black bar to your avatar
  4. Allow the site to update your avatar
  5. Win
