They are an unfriendly, communist, totalitarian regime. We exactly do we care if they are on the Internet?
Again, this is not a troll. I'm really interested in the ramifications of this action, which at the moment escape me.
Yeah, because US is the one that should dictate that, right?

OK, this is what's wrong with Slashdot. The comment by the parent has nothing to do with the GP it responds to. There isn't even a hint that anyone should dictate anything in the GP's post. Still the parent's response to it was modded insightful, probably simply because the comment is vaguely anti-US. The US shouldn't have any say in that, of course, but this is still not a command that adds anything to the discussion at hand, least of all any insight.
