Today’s sysadmin todo list:
0. Get corporate membership with EFF.

I’m sorry for US sites and users. Your government is hell-bent on turning the internet into a read-only device like TV, easily regulated and controlled. The population will be required to sit quietly and keep their eyes glued on the screen so they don’t miss the ads, with any infringers deemed terrorists and pedophiles and thus deserving of summary punishment by DHS squads.
Hopefully the internet will route around the damaged segment, and the rest of us can continue to enjoy the amazing interactivity it has brought our society.

When we look back in 20 years about the downfall of America’s entrepreneurial class I hope there is no question about how the government and large corporations destroyed the people’s ability to compete.
There are no truer words than:
“Your government is hell-bent on turning the internet into a read-only device like TV, easily regulated and controlled.”
The rest of the world used to look at our attempts to regulate the internet and prop up dying business models as a joke, the joke is now over and we are just going to be segregated and ignored.
