Garlon was the brother of King Pellam. He killed Sir Herlews le Berbeus and later Sir Perin de Montbeliard. A life of crime is easily contemplated when one has slain two men of honor, and possesses a cloak of invisibility.

A point could be made for "most willfully ignorant", but that's about it.

Where in my post did I use the terms evil, overlord or scumbag? Your lack of reading comprehension in no way entitles you to using the paranoid moron dreaming idiot idiom, but I shall attempt to refrain stooping to your level.

Censorship and surveillance are tools. When used by our servants and representatives to enable and cover up secret police, secret laws, secret sentences, state-sponsored abductions, torture and assassinations I think we have every right to be concerned.

It is probably hard for you to comprehend, but there are (many) Chinese who believe there's no place like China, and many Russians who believe Russia is the bastion of liberty on this planet.

"As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master".
