"This is electronic book burning. The Supreme Court has ruled the secret censors may prevent you from reading what you want," opined Seth Finkelstein, a leading expert on Internet filters.

No. It has ruled that the Federal government doesn't have to pay to give you access to it. You can still read anyhing (legal) that you want without censorship. Libraries that are wholly State or locally funded can still provide you with anything that you want if it is the will of the people there to provide it for you.

All the libraries in my area have filters. Area citizens won't stand for otherwise. Why one needs federal interference is beyond me.

What has happened to this once independent thinking nation?
