Well, there goes the neighborhood. I better dig up my old BBS software and get used to paying long distance phone charges again. Here decades after underground BBS stuff goes away we enter a new century and it looks like anything that doesn't touch the Internet will be the next generation of free speech like it was prior to the Internet. Anyone else remember the raids on BBS sites back in the eighties? Those couldn't be regulated, either, but the distributors of evil software could be "taken down" by the Feds and they did so with gusto. JMHO
