Senators Call for Universal Internet Filtering 628
An Anonymous Coward writes "US senators today made a bipartisan call for the universal implementation of filtering and monitoring technologies on the Internet in order to protect children. Their statement came at the end of a Senate hearing in which civil liberties groups were not invited."
Ok, the end of the Internet is here... (Score:5, Funny)

I wouldn't mind, assuming we returned corporations to a public charter system, in which a corporation may have its charter revoked if it is found to behave illegally. And, I'd like to see some vengeance against the to executives, and make it so if Kenneth Lay dies, we get to see his body so all the ex-Enron employees who were fleeced out of their retirement funds can piss in his cold dead mouth.
'Cause I don't think he's dead.
If the libertarians can promise me that, I'm a convert. 'Cause except for the whole trust-in-the-free-market thing, I'm mostly there.
Actually, I'm a liberal anarcho-constitutionalist. But that's pretty damned close.

The animal, maybe? You are showing incredible disregard for the rights of the victim, here. What poor dog wants to have the images of his/her genitalia internationally broadcast? Was the dog even consulted before this video was made? Is there a pawprint on the release forms?
What's that? Dogs don't have legal status in such matters? Well there you go! It's obviously an oppression of the canine species, an outright abuse of man's best friend! Have you seen the studies showing sharp increases of abuse of canines by humans and other species in populations when images of dog genitalia are so common?
All I can think of to say to these people is: "DOGGIE PEE-PEE! DOGGIE PEE-PEE! DOGGIE PEE-PEE!"

There is an upside to this. You won't ever have to hear someone talking about Bush & Dick again.

Maybe the blurring people got bored. If I was a blurrer, I'd blur out random things, like people noses or apples, just to confuse the viewers.
