geoffgo 87; You mentioned the Fairness Doctrine, so I commented on it as it related to the point I made above. Of course, the can can be kicked farther down the road to address other attempts to maintain government control. You and I agree that the appetite for social control (including taxation) is insatiable. I was merely commenting that, by virtue of its distributed nature, the internet may be difficult to control and thereby may play some role in preserving freedom/resisting tyranny.
