Hi Pete and Noman,

Re: VXA? Like, who else? OK, NOW I'm beginning to understand which case 
you're talking about and it has nothing to do with California. Oh I'm 
well aware of the poo storm over Google's refusal to remove the clips 
from its child You Tube. Frankly I'm surprised they didn't as soon as 
they were discovered as being offensive which is against their policy to 
begin with. I've seen other things removed with a notice in their place 
saying WHY and not all removed by You Tube, some were removed by the 
poster.

I had no idea some judge refused to order removal, but I can understand 
why, lack of jurisdiction. In the US at least there is no regulation of 
content besides what a site owner allows which is why discussion forums 
have moderators. You Tube has what amounts to the same thing and ISPs 
have rules regulating what one can do and not do on the network but these 
are private contractural matters while the internet itself has no 
official government oversight therefore a judge cannot make a ruling 
regarding it.

IMO this is a good thing, the internet is the only communication freedom 
we have left so I'd hate the day the iron fist of government chokes it 
off. Then there is packet where the bulk of communication these days is 
via our own private reserved IP blocks, give thanks every time you 
connect to the BBS that someone had the foresight to grant us our very 
own internet within the world wide web.
