Not a bad idea. I've been noodling on some sort of work-around. Incorporate in another country, put the servers there, and run the business remotely from Fresno.Hmmmmmmm... if the FEC really wanted to, they might still be able to shut you down, even if the Canadian servers stayed up. But you know, the peer2peer (Kazaa-like or BitTorrent) model might ultimately be a better model if it came to that. Someone could come up with a blogging system that was inherently distributed ala Kazaa or BitTorrent.
If there's no critical nexus to your distribution model, they can't shut it down no matter how hard they try. (That's what shut down the original Napster. (which was find in that case, but this would be a truly legitimate & heroic use for p2p.))
In a way it'd be like Usenet, which is the original distributed p2p system, except I'm thinking of something that's tailored more toward serving up modern blog/messageboard threads.
Any VCs out there with $100 million burning a hole in your pocket, shoot me a freepmail, we'll talk. :-)

This bill has so many anti-Constitutional measures that it boggles the mind. Lobbying is a problem in Congress, granted, but the problem is not with the lobbyists, but Congress itself. The reason lobbyists are so pervasive is because the Congressmen and Senators they ply with cash, gifts and free trips can sneak any manner of spending boondoggles into the Federal budget. The booze made me get drunk, honest!

Perhaps McCain and Feingold believe we should replace our Bill of Rights with the Organization of Islamic Conference Cairo Declaration of Human Rights, to wit,
Article 22
"(a) Everyone shall have the right to express his opinion freely in such manner as would not be contrary to the principles of the Shariah.
(b) Everyone shall have the right to advocate what is right, and propagate what is good, and warn against what is wrong and evil according to the norms of Islamic Shariah.
(c) Information is a vital necessity to society. It may not be exploited or misused in such a way as may violate sanctities and the dignity of Prophets, undermine moral and ethical values or disintegrate, corrupt or harm society or weaken its faith.
(d) It is not permitted to arouse nationalistic or doctrinal hatred or to do anything that may be an incitement to any form of racial discrimination."

"McCain may not be the perfect Senator, but he isn't Satan or Hillary." He's worse. At least Hitlery's running as a leftist scumbag. Shame on Satanator McFlame! Ya' DON'T step on the Bill of Rights!

Great idea! They would have to come after the individual users, which would be political suicide. I wish I had the programming skills to make it a reality.

You are not alone, any attack on free speech, Internet, written word, spoken word or any other form of communication in our United States, violates our Constitutional rights. Those who propose such attacks on our rights are Traitors to our Country and our way of life. Amen.

Well, Jim, you certainly have laid down the law again, and I wholeheartedly agree.
I went out into that vast (and endangered) resource known as the Internet (algorejoke). You see, I have seen the Forrestal carrier fire story many times on cable -- and I was always uneasy about the portrayal.
Looking for another Swiftboat-type angle?
What I came across instead was this FReeper thread from 3.18.2004: McCain Rides to Kerry's Rescue: "John Kerry is Not Weak on Defense" (Today Show alert).
In the immortal words of Eric Idle, "Say. No. MORE!" The FReeper posts brought it all kicking and screaming back into the forefront.
It woke me up!
I turned my tagline into a brief overview of how I feel about his cohort... I'll save my thoughts on that for another thread. ;o)

Democrats know a traitor when they see one.. thats why..I think his FBI file has some very damaging stuff in it and that Hillary is pulling his strings. I don't think he has the stones to just quit--ambition overwhelms that, so there he is, in the dc 'Hilton', doing the same dance he did in Hanoi.

Islam is the least of our problems. Even Jim would admit McCain isn't as bad as Islam! Sheesh!
Personally I think they'll fix this before elections. It'd be electorial suicide to not fix a loop hole "mistake" like this!

People have often asked me why I don't like McCain. Its his impulse to censor. Senator McCensor

Congress passed it but it wasn't a law yet. One more person had to approve it.

Few Americans trust Islam, but far too many of us trust McCain.
McCain is an "American" but he is STILL leading an all-out assault on one of our most basic and fundamental freedoms.
Islam is the devil a world away. McCain is the devil at the door.

"Yes, and Ted Sampley is a vicious liar."
Would you please either explain your statement or supply a link as I've found no proof of that or anything that would make me even suspect it after searching and reading for several hours.
I might add that I've heard the same stories about McCain over the past few years from retired personnel who were Vietnam POW's and what they have said run on a parallel with what Ted Sampley has said. I've also been told McCain is a loose cannon and can go from Mr. Nice-Guy to a raving maniac with the click of a finger and for no reason.
