So I’m sure many of you are in full support of the anti-SOPA blackouts, which we are of course, but at the very same time are trying to figure out some small detail about the key grip’s cousin from Terminator 2. You’ll need a site like Wikipedia to figure out this bullshit. So here’s a very simple way around the blackout!

Google does a very good job of caching websites (Basically, caching is used to recall previous data faster). If you search for an item through Google, chances are a Wikipedia article will appear in the top few results. Roll your mouse over the Wikipedia result and you will see an arrow appear to the right of the result, providing a cached screenshot as well as a few options. One of these options is to view the cached version of that very page. A cached version that is not blacked out!
