UK filtering

So it begins. Britain has ISP filtering. This filtering has found an album cover that is perfectly legal to sell in a record store but someone decided it was offencive so now the whole of Britain cannot edit the Wikipedia. I hope this false sense of security is worth it.

The filtering of UK's internet is held up as an example of how ISP filtering is working in other countries by Australia's government.

The fundies in the UK will be pleased. Wikipedia has never given an inch to fundies. Those terrible Wikipedia users unashamedly make the most outrageous claims like that the Earth is round (I know, it's shocking) and that it goes around the Sun. They even give credence to the "Theory of Gravity". Everyone knows that we are held on the Earth by God's love.
