It's long, though... <slight troll; don't read further> It looks like a "Great Firewall of Canada" is going up. They should look at the dismal record of how Australia implemented theirs (all the while knowing how easy it is for the "criminals and terrorists" to bypass their blocks). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_Australia But,it really isn't about the "criminals and terrorists" is it? The people in positions of power worldwide are feverishly drooling over the ability to control what others can know, while not blocking the information from themselves. What a sad, sad life those people live! Sounds like the Dark Ages. scott
