FReeper PRogrammers take of that! I have learned. You cannot post threads from the few sites that object. The notion that the Onion can stop FReepers from posting articles here is a silly one indeed. The Internet, is not subject to certain constraints. That is just so. FR.com has apparantly chosen as a courtesy to abide by requests of certain site providers.
The Media who actually use the net for their articles, ads, editorials, and whatever, will not thrive when they limit access to their sites. Blocking linkage, is a very very short sited policy.
