Here is a video addressing current events regarding government control of the internet (or its attempt to).

I'm concerned where this is going. While people are all caught up trying to save the Second Amendment, they forget that the very tool they are using to accomplish that is under attack. It's a scary thought to think that someday sites like APS, or the people who use it could be denied the ability to share what ever is deemed "dangerous and subversive" thoughts. No-fly lists?.. how about No-Connect lists?
