Mark my words, if this keeps going we'll soon see ISPs ordered to block some foreign media sites, and see news sites becoming regulated. You know, just to make sure no one credible publishes leaks anymore, for national security and so on.
- andreasklinger 13y agoThe saddest thing about it is that they do not even need to explain it anymore. People just assume that it's a thing the government can/will do. Maybe we need to repeat our errors every 3-4 generations to keep them in our society's consciousness.

The policy may be misguided because duplication of the content occurs regardless on the web, but the original intent of the policy was to prevent further damage.
- chris_mahan 13y agoBut wait, if clearances restrict your access to information, then they are not clearances, but restrictors.
