Facebook turns red

As the Supreme Court convened in the USA to decide the fate of marriage equality - and more specifically, the fate of Proposition 8, which outlawed same-sex marriages in California - Facebook users all around the world have changed their profile pictures to a red-hued version of the logo belonging to the Human Rights Campaign, an advocacy group for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender individuals.

There are thousands of articles about it online, but you can check out the Huffington Post one here. Mashable also noted that the move to adopt the HRC profile picture gained notable support after actor George Takei updated his own with the logo.
