does one exist?  one that allows people to receive and impart 
information and ideas without restriction?

(you can stop reading here.  the rest is just me typing too much.)

i've been using facebook for a couple of months and like it greatly. 
also like that they use f/oss.  then i posted a link to a torrent file 
on thepiratebay.org to a tv show that wasn't available where i live 
(japanese martial arts event).  facebook blocks the link.  redirects 
users to a security page.  it's really easy to work around but still 
bums me out.

an article about it. "Facebook Overreacts: Decides All Of The Pirate Bay 
Is Illegal"

thanks,
eric 'the pirate' c.
