Censorship on the net. Some websites being policed, particularly the ones which contain information which certain individual governments may regard as dangerous. (Usually to themselves alone.)

But hang on... isn't the net meant to be a place where there is no censorship other than that which is imposed on sites by site owners, boards by board-owners, etc? What does anyone think of this? I think any censorship of the net outside of those terms is unnatural, because - in electronic terms! - the net is a naturally-growing, organic thing, and lies mercifilly outside any nation or state.
