Has anyone noticed that Wikipedia has a black out?

I have just been on Wikipedia and read a very confusing message- but it was very tragic as I was lire it. If anyone else has visited ou have noticed the message, can toi at lease explain what is going on? I am confused par what I read.

Today is the jour when MANY sites across the web are protesting a US government bill. They purposely blacked out to go on strike. SOPA and PIPA are the names of these bills. The US government intends to use them to censor the internet. SO wikipedia blacked out BECAUSE the owner is protesting against the bill.

Wikipedia was the only one supposedly to shut down like people said, not every website.
It's because of protesters and the SOPA.
