it would take the true geeks/hackers/coders just a few weeks to work up a solution for this, the only way they could truly implement something like internet censorship, is if they could actively monitor each and every node on the web, and break the tunneling encryption which would be used to do this...
which they simply can't do... i'm not worried about this one bit


the only other solution is employing really crazy corporate style security, which is A to expensive, B to limiting for any business making money of the net

China can do it, because it's an oppressive regime that can barge down the door of it's citizens and seize computers for free speech... that can't be done in the EU, and i'm sure it's not so easy in the US either... freedom of speech, privacy rules, etc etc... if they'de start doing that over here, we'de have more problems on our hand then just the internet
