Twitter and Google are communication channels. It doesn't help the cause to shut down sites that allow people to talk about SOPA/PIPA.

Yes, but it would be as affective to shut it down than to let people talk about it, maybe even more. 

Doubtful. My Facebook, Twitter, and G+ feeds are abuzz with people sending links on how to contact your representatives, find out where your reps stand on the issues, and other assorted stuff regarding the bills. Without that, many people would probably just go work on something.

Yeah actually makes since, but they should at least have a banner mentioning about it somewhere.
