Internet Silence Speaks Louder Than Words

Major websites around the web blacked out their homepages Friday at 9:30 a.m. in memoriam for the Sandy Hook massacre last week. In the cacophonous free-speech circus that is the Internet, where the knee-jerk reaction to all issues is to generate more words, the practice of forced silence sends a distinct signal of seriousness: sacrifice. In a blackout, we cannot advertise. We cannot promote our coveted views. We can only sit in deafening silence as our traffic flatlines. In exchange, we hope that readers will give a rare moment of undivided reflection.
