I'm glad I don't live in the U.S.
With DCMA, The patriot act, this new bill, restrictions, on on-line gambling (of any sort) and the net neutrality bill, it sounds like there soon won't be much internet left over there. I believe there was another bill which nearly closed some tattoo websites, photo websites and stock libraries because they had to have consent forms for every photo no matter how old or long they'd had it. Hard to get consent from someone who has died since you took their picture.

What's next? The "Preventation of viewing anything that might possibly be upsetting Act?"

I thought our govt. in the UK was nuts, but this US administration is starting to make Blair's govt look sensible and *that* my friends takes some doing.
