If they can block all references to democracy or hunt down anti-government emails, why can't we hunt down all the phishing email I get every day or the child pornography come ons that I forward to my state Attorney General's office Huh?

Obviously, the people ignoring the phishers have nothing quite as dramatic to lose. When somebody asks you to trade your security for freedom, it isn't your freedom they're talking about.

If you want to police your own little subdomain of the intarweb to be as closed off and restrictive as China's internet is, go right ahead. Don't foist that on me. -YendorMike "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin, 1759 Historical Review of Pennsylvania
