anybody argumenting with buzz word of "child pornography" is a brainwashed consumer of TV disinfo and deserves no serious attention. you most likely have no real idea about the real extents of real child pornography problem. let me assure you, it is gigantically SMALLER than you would ever anticipate. but the buzz word seems working for people who need no braincells to live.

Jacob, most of us law-abiding citizens who find this debate interesting do not own the lines or towers and general infrastructure of the Internet anymore than our parents owned the phone company. Therefore the owners have rights too. Push for lawful change but don't speak like we have an absolute right to reveal state secrets, etc. Chomsky doesn't steal and reveal state secrets but he exercises free speech. Isn't that best until laws are lawfully changed. btw child pornographers have no rights.

I AM pornography

@ will usher Bill Hicks was a genius. Lead balloon? HA. On a comparative light note, the speaker has referenced P.K. Dick, Bill Hicks and R.A. Wilson in his publicly available presentations. These are three of the best and brightest of our species. cheers,
