I'm not advocating the politics - just letting people know its happening.

On February 1, 2007, EFF warned the Chicago Auto Show to back off attempts to muzzle protestors who posted a parody of the show's website.
The parody site, autoshowshutdown.org, is a clearinghouse for information about "Auto Show SHUTDOWN Festival" -- an annual event where hundreds of cyclists parade through Chicago to raise awareness about global warming and to promote sustainable transportation. The ride culminates in a rally at the entrance to the show. But this week, a lawyer for the auto show sent a threatening letter to the protestors, claiming that the website amounted to trademark infringement and that it would seek damages if the parody was not taken down.
