For those that haven't been keeping track Zero's DOJ, ICE, and Homeland Security have been seizing the domain names without notice or due process of websites who only "crime" has been to link to other websites that possibly contain infringing material. With such a low standard of proof, don't be surprised to see this one day when come to FreeRepublic and see this:

Seize first, trial later, maybe.

This nation won’t be free again until this country rids itself of fascist police organizations that are above the law and the Constitution. To get to there, we will have to rid ourselves of the politicians who keep funding them. Conservative politicians need to get off the federal band wagon, and get back to looking after the liberties of their constituents.

I don’t get it. When Repubs get in these practices are not redesigned to be compliant with the Constitution and a little thing called due process. I mean, when you’re elected, this is “first day executive order” stuff. With a simple stroke of the pen, you’d have NOTHING happen like this without due process. A very simple order from the top - only thing is instead of enlarging gov’t power it would be putting it back in it’s Constitutional place.
The only time “executive authority” is appropriate is when it comes to the ultimate safety of the nation, for example, when a billion people want to annihilate the nation. Yes, in that case you can keep genocidal maniacs at gitmo, that’s is appropriate.

In addition, Senator Wyden asks the following. Did he actually believe that crap about "transparency", and expect to get a straight answer?

Funny that ICE is involved in this. It should be the FBI period .. ICE should have nothing to do with it.

And btw, if DNS is ever interfered with (and I'm sure it will be), here's how you get to FR minus the domain name and any DNS support:

Makes me think FreeRepublic should have contingencies for multiple alternate and mirrored domains.

I’m a bit confused on one point: What bearing does IP enforcement have on homeland security? Are we worried that Al Qaeda is pirating DVDs?

I may not like how they went about it, but I applaud the move to shut down those sites. They were pirating sports and television feeds, stealing...no other way to put it.

11. Why does ICE and DOJ consider this a more important priority for their time and resources than catching the illegals streaming across the border?
