Thanks for the post.

Censorship and control is the inbuilt human tendency at its worst. Internet
is perhaps the greatest techological advance in human history after printing
was invented. We are going to see control based organizational structures
are going to collapse and many of those leaders who have spent their
lifetime enjoying control are going to get heart attacks and may be will
suffer depression, IMHO. Let us all have fun watching all of this unfold.

Long live Internet!!!
