There's only one reason I can think of as to why the government wants to filter the internet; To pander to TV execs and PR firms who are afraid that fast broadband internet will eventually erode their advertising revenue. Well of course it will, nobody likes having to sit through that many commercials just to watch a crappy TV show, we're better off downloading our entertainment. So they lobby the government to somehow make the internet slower and use the propaganda like excuse that we need internet filtering to save our souls. If the government eventually do make internet filtering mandatory, then we should lobby the government to make TV execs and PR people illegal. Or just punish them with death by stoning... ...Well not really but that's how I feel. Why aren't we in the streets burning cars and damaging property like the French do?
