R: Re: WAY FUCKING OT: apology about getting my facts wrong.
Well, just for fun... Anyone knows that the Italian government is studying
a
law to control blogs and apply censure on the offending (for the moral,
the
ethics and religion) ones?
And this is intended for social networking, too. If the law passes, then
no
more Facebook in Italy, nor Myspace or yahoo groups...
Pretty liberal, for a Government led by the owner of three quarters of the
informations networks in italy (i.e. various television networks, and
varius
newspapers and magazines, too).
Peace
Luigi
