Keep your hands off my Frerepublic and everything else on the internet.
I think it will apply to every site on the web. Political sites, networking sites, sites dedicated to studying music recipe sites, fan sites photos, much of what is sold on ebay and ioffer,bye bye youtube no political videos, music, old movies or eyewitness videos that might humiliate certain politicians.Might as well take down the whole web.Only thing left would be a commercial sites, stores professional media, government.Nothing from the “little people - oh I get it now!
Guess they have to shut down the internet before too many Americans realize Obama wasn’t legally certified by the Democrat Party to run for President. But maybe they wouldn’t care anyway.

Another name for my list. :-)
I’ve been reading this posts and been thinking about a couple of responses.
First, it might be a good thing to experience something like this. I’m not kidding. A good old kick in the teeth has a bracing effect on people who are sitting around waiting for motivation. Which brings me to...
Second, good luck trying to stop illicit communications in an era when people can process mass amounts of information on a flash drive, encrypt hidden files, run from one proxy to another... even print off pamphlets in the dead of night and scatter them around town. Solzhenitsyn had to write in tiny letters and hide scraps of paper in his shoe. In this era, we can literally move encyclopedic amounts of data around, almost in plain sight. What would it take to save the contents of these posts and hide it somewhere on a newly-burned DVD? Or inside a cell phone? The powers which seek this sort of censorship have no clue. Which brings me to....
The scarier thought. The censorship is established, and everything goes along just as it was... with the exception of the occasional victim, who is paraded around as the incarnation of Osama bin Lade. No reason to censor everyone’s post when a few well-publicized victims demonstrate what it means to cross the powers in charge. Self-censorship is always preferred, and many people will do to avoid trouble.
And liberty dies with a whimper. With free porn, too.
