It pisses me off when I am being treated differently on the internet based on where I am in the real word. It is one of the reasons Hulu won't get my patronage even if they extend to other countries outside the us. In this case it didn't ma

If we are going to count on hope and virtue to get us out of this mess, then we might as well give up because it will only be an exercise in wasting time.

Lawmakers don't care about protests unless they make them look bad, so don't waste your time. Now blackmail on the other hand... (handy hint, it will have no effect unless it is illegal or require a ridiculously high number of people)
