Recently I spent some time at NJ Best Buy store waiting for service at cell phone department. Loged to their Network and internet access. Loaded FReerepublic page, when trying to load second page, my access got blocked with message about "innapropriet" content. That was it! Looks like communist fingers are getting long.

We are [bleeped]!

Since you are one of the three people left who still buy stuff at Best Buy, you would think they would be more careful about pissing you off!

Same experience on Acela Express from DC. Shocking.

Who knows? It’s their servers. There is some stuff put up here that maybe a private company wouldn’t want showing up on a network they own, especially if they want to remain apolitical.

Well, as an alternative, did you try to go to Democratic Underground? ;-)

The perfect experiment would have been to try to sign onto the DUmpster website.If that,too,was blocked then one could argue that they wanted to block politics in general.

If not...

Sometimes FReepers use “azz holes” and other shockingly obscene and totally unacceptable uses of the language.(kidding)

Now rap artists can rhapsodize cop killers and thugs who tear women apart with blades or rape them and describe women with foul names——and that’s perfectly okay? I’m sure Best Buy would agree. That group’s “privilege” and “special rights” just expired. Too bad.

Untrue? Hope so. We can test it. Would have to darken the door of that dive, though.

They probably got tired of guys like me setting every computer that was online in the store to the FR main forum page .

Best Buy apparently is in the business of "finding" kiddie porn on computers brought in for repair.
