How about all the censoring done on computers? Example: the
vivisection and organ transplant sale, and use of Falun Gong
practitioners bodies in BODYWORLDS displays is not acceptable,
apparently, for discussion through emails. I once did an experiment
when trying to disseminate info about this and, sure enough, the words
that would NOT allow dissemination of a particular email was---falun
gong. THAT is cooperative censoring for the benefit of a foreign
country through our very own internet/emails. this may seem minor but
if you do your homework, you will find that there is a rather obvious
censoring going on through internet, depending on what you're trying
to disseminate. i encounter this quite frequently, also in what I'm
trying to read.
Just one example.
I'll actually be surprised if this goes through, so would appreciate a
comment or two on this to confirm receipt.
Please do not jump to any negative conclusions, folks, on my comment,
unless you do your homework first. I couldn't Make this up.
And BTW, Hal. You RRROOOCCCKKK!
