I heard about this on the 5pm news... this is not good, as we know
what
the big companies do when they have a chance. They screw us over so
they
can make more money.
Imagine being blocked by your ISP because they provide a competing
service..




Welcome to our government with it's hands in the pockets of large

corporations.

It's more like big corps having their hands wrapped around the nuts
of the government -- and squeezing.

No... it's more like the courts making simply stupid decisions. You can't
blame corpororations for what they try to do - you have to blame the courts
for how they decide.


The supreme court does NOT write laws. That is not what they do (look
it up).
