The Companies Who Support Censoring The Internet

Lamar Smith, Rep. John Conyers, Senator Patrick Leahy and Senator Charles Grassley), supporting the continued seizure of domain names they don't like, as well as the new COICA censorship bill, despite the serious Constitutional questions raised about how such seizures violate due process and free speech principles. http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20110118/12431012712/companies-who-support-censoring-internet.shtml
