I was wondering if any one would be interested in a fun small Xmas project that scans your facebook/twitter profile picture and then uses the Face.com (http://developers.face.com/) API to 'censor' your face with some small text at the bottom of the picture saying you're against SOPA.
It then reposts it as your profile picture and of course the app would allow you to share the censored picture on your social networks of choice via a tweet or wall post.
And if you are a REAL bad ass: You could even build a browser plugin that censors anything/everything on the websites you visit.
I would do it but leaving country tomorrow (w./o. a computer) till the new year and am still a n00b programmer, so I thought someone on HN would be interested in doing it instead.
Happy hacking & holidays!!
tl;dr Build an app that scans your facebook/twitter profile picture censors (blacks out) your face and sets the censored version as your profile picture to show that you're against SOPA
