Fake Proaganda. If there is such a law, show me physical proof. Until then, I won't trust in some unrelaible source about a law that would require an act of God to enforce. 'Nuff said.

<a href='http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/F?c ... IWu:e91030:' target='_blank'>The relevant section</a>, and <a href='http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html ... -000-.html' target='_blank'>the law that is amended</a><br><br>Personally, I think this is more of an over-reaction than anything else. The excerpt in the article is clearly modified to omit any reference to "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, or indecent". Frankly, I don't see any major problem with it. You still have to cross the line to be penailzed.

Oh for the love of all things that can be used as an expletive!<br><br>The US doesn't own the Internet! Doesn't this violate free speech in some way?<br><br>Wonder how this fits in with the bill:<br><br>"You're presenting an opinion that differs from mine. You are annoying me. I demand your full name, address, and list of all previous criminal convictions."<br><br>Edit: Oops. Sim post.
That which does not kill me, cripples me for life.

Other than stating my dislike for the USA's insane protection of the freedom of speech, all I can say is <!--emo&:huh:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ns/huh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='huh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Does this mean that we can turn Redie(can't spell) in for being a long winded pest?
I wonder if it'll finally get it's own forum too. I've always wanted a place online where I can talk about O&M.
