Critics of the two Internet bills, SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (protect IP Act), say the bills will eventually end in "Internet censorship". They were introduced to the Senate and House of Representatives as a way to prevent online piracy of movies, music, and other online media.

As the end date approaches in the coming year for the "Internet Tax Freedom Act" that was signed in 1998, two republic senators have proposed a new bill. Not only does the new bill protect Internet users from taxation of Internet access, usage, and email by government agencies, this bill would be permanent.

Jonathan Cagle on 27 Jan 13

Article discusses the Chinese government blocking web sites that it deems to be 'politically sensitive'. Web sites about the revolts against the government in other countries are blocked and have lead to more limits on internet searches. Other sites that are critical of government officials have also blocked and negative comments about them are deleted. The Chinese government now requires internet service providers to obtain their customers real names in an effort to cut internet anonymity.

Freedom to make bad decisions is inherent in the freedom to make good ones. If we are only free to make good decisions, we are not really free. I can assure you of this - once the government gains a foothold into regulating the internet, even for benevolent reasons, the wonders of the free internet will soon be a thing of the past.
