Since we won 5 to 2 (the deviants were Rehnquist and O'Connor),
I'm archiving this page until more censorship related news shows up, the
war is hardly over yet. For details, go to CDA
Loses,what
happens next? and to the organizational sites listed on this
page.
For current information on what's going on in censorship on
the Net worldwide, go to Fight
Censorship".
Looks like the Supreme Court will decide on the CDA sometime soon... since the incompetent bonehead you re-elected had his Attorney General defend the stupid thing in court. For current information, go to the CIEC site.
To find out what the young people the CDA is allegedly supposed to protect have to say about it, you can find a summary at Wired News, or go to the Peacefire site itself. The least of their complaints is that the use of products like NetNanny and Surfwatch make it impossible to do even high school level research into controversial topics in contemporary news and history. As a former employee of one of these companies, I have to agree with them. I was ordered to "classify" as "adult-only" virtually anything that dealt with current news / politics / controversial social movements. The kids aren't grateful. I remember when I was that age, dodging adult restrictions on my information access simply in order to find anything out that was useful. The song remains the same, only the technology changes.
I'd planned to get a decent HTML editor before putting this page up. This site is available now to support my attack on the Communications "Decency" Act. This page is under construction, not all links will work. To get my PGP2.6.2 key, click here.
An offensive sig file:
The Communications Decency Act: For ideas about how to commit decidedly UNCIVIL disobedience against
the CDA, go to the OTHER lizard
site. (DIFFERENT LIZARD, no relation!!!)
A press release from the Christian Coalition taking credit for the
CDA can be found
here. Why they want to take credit for banning the Bible from
cyberspace is a question you really ought to ask them.
The latest information on the court challenge to the Communications
Decency Act can be found here.
If you want to see what the Web will look like after Exon, check out
the eXonizer site. Try
viewing this page (and some of your favorite pages) through it.
To see the face of the enemy... check out this idiot's site . Shows
the intellectual caliber of censorship advocates... [7/26/97 - the site
has disappeared. Hopefully she committed suicide when she heard the CDA
decision. Have a moment of silence for her the next time you're sitting on
the crapper.]
If you got this far on this page, here's a reward. Click HERE.
Then try some other URLs through the text filter I sent you to. Hope you
enjoy the results as much as I did.
For another fun place which contains XXX-rated adult content, click
HERE, and page
down until you get to the good stuff.
"ANY comment, request, suggestion, proposal, image or other
communication in terms patently offensive as measured by
community standards, sexual or excretory activities or organs..."
From the Bible:
Rabshakeh asks: "Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to
thee, to speak these words? Hath he not sent me to the men which
sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink
their own piss with you?" II Kings 18:27 AND Isaiah 36:12
IF THIS BE PORNOGRAPHY, MAKE THE MOST OF IT!
