...sort, but still) and endured the "Hostel 2" posters that were of a person's guts. I said at the time "That's inappropriate", and "I think those should be banned". Not, mind you, because I'm a big fan of censorship, but because there should be some system by which you can decide what you wish to expose yourself and your kids to. These posters clearly violated this. Now obviously this movie theater is...
"I will listen to you when we disagree and most of all I will open the doors of government and ask you to be involved in your own Democracy again." If that's the case, then why is it that on the YouTube...on their videos. Yet if you check the McCain/Palin YouTube channel, comments are posted immediately without approval.

For those who think that chinese style totalitarian internet censorship couldn't possibly happen in a free, democratic country... Australia Just wait, if Obama gets in, we'll surely have the same thing happen here with the internet Fairness doctrine, banning any site that doesn't offer a "balanced" view in some nebulous bureau's opinion.

...attempts or to various USA PATRIOT Act related debacles, often involving questionable tactics and an unconstitutional disregard for personal freedom and human rights. Seemingly inseparable from Censorship, Intellectual Freedom is actually relatively difficult to define. A concept so simple, yet so very important.

Don't try and be my Daddy! My Daddy has done a good job on his own and his main values are equality, fairness, truth, justice and transparency. He doesn't believe in censorship, and I turned out okay! THE Federal Government is planning to make internet censorship compulsory for all Australians and could ban controversial websites on euthanasia or anorexia. Australia's level of net censorship will...

It's alost 5:30 am and I find it hilarious that there's a wiki article on censorship by Google. On second thought, that's disturbing. But who am I to talk? I guess what's more worrying is the Australian Government's attempt to filter out pr0n and gambling from the interwebz which extends to anything illegal (including torrent sites and the likes, and potentially politically sensitive material?...

Internet censorship has rapidly grown up in this country turning freedom of speech into simple formality which is available in theory, but neglected in practice.
