This changes nothing.
SOPA has been merely shelved, and I'd be surprised if this didn't come back as a reformed PIPA. Reforming PIPA and passing it through senate would make more sense as people would view it as a compromise.
If anything, there is more reason than ever to fight against Internet censorship and draconian copyright laws. The very fact that America has raised SOPA and PIPA shows that the Internet is far from safe and people should continue to be angry about it.
Hopefully Reddit will lead the way towards an Internet blackout, if not to get rid of SOPA, but to get rid of PIPA and to criticise those who let it get this far in the first place.
