has anyone read about this? What do you think?
It looks like this would allow the government to censor the internet.

Right now, it appears to be aimed at youtube, etc. based on the 'support' list. Ofcourse, it probably could be expanded, or worded just vague enough to shut down anything the gubmint wants.I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

I've been trying to think about what the hell you mean.. I finally think I have it. You're talking about the politics rule, right? Well, this relates to digital media online (copyright infringement of), which means music and movies... this is a forum about audio.... I think it fits (also censoring of internets,,, which we happen to be on
). -

To be fair, I think you are the only one aiming to label this political. So far it has only been civic and legal. But, I do appreciate your concern. -
This looks like another thing I can agree with in principle, but be heartily disgusted by its execution.
