Comment Problems in Britain (Score 1) 196
Brilliantly phrased. I hadn't realized things had gotten so bad in Brittan. I usually find myself fairly clouded by Ethnocentrism, and don't remember that not everyone has a first amendment. I was thinking that I was going to skip America after some laws were passed (specifically California's Prop 22) and I think that Holland is fairly wonderful... But that is just based on rumours I have heard.
Further, to actually comment on this case. I know I speak for most folk reading this when I say that this is evil and foul. The very idea that people can lash out at that which they don't understand is absolutely the bottom. The only thing I can think of is that we should create a new post in our governments. Call it the national geek. Applicants must be between 20-40, and has the power of veto on all laws involving the internet. It's the only solution I can think of. Either that, or we have to wait 40 years, until the geeks and the internet generation is in power.
Just my opinion,
