Macedonia: Hoax About Facebook and Google SOPA Blackout · Global Voices
Filip Stojanovski

Macedonian blogs and independent sites IT.com.mk, Fail.mk, and Radio MOF [all mk] attempt to debunk the misinformation copy-pasted by a number of local commercial media (employing professional journalists) that Facebook, Google, Yahoo and other sites will join SOPA blackout, probably based on incompetent translation of a CBS article stating the opposite. The hoax caused mild panic and a huge number of link shares among Macedonian Facebook users.
