This Is Rather Significant
I pulled this from Roger Simon at Pajamas Media.
It is a very interesting, and somewhat alarming article.
We know the freedom of speech infringements that are occurring in China right now via Google (though they are not really first amendment issues because the Chinese Government does not have a first amendment) but we may not realize that the same issue is potentially threatening our online first amendment rights, here on our own soil (and as I am sure you are aware, we do have the first amendment).
This is a big deal if you... You know, use the internet.
Give it a read.
