Start A Whole New Country And Only We Can Come

Isn’t that weird? I thought the Internet was supposed to be a place outside the world, like the Olympics keeps claiming to be, where people unite, regardless of a/s/l, through their love of doctored pet photos, misspelled bitchery, and weird Japanese pr0n. That’s one of the greatest things about the Internet, that people in Britain don’t have to watch their crappy TV shows because they can torrent “Futurama” and “Flavor of Love [x]“, and Americans can download the far superior British originals that U.S. media conglomerates have bastardized in their quest for satisfying the lowest common denominator of the TV-viewing public. That’s freedom! That’s beauty and truth! Why shouldn’t I be able to watch Finnish death metal whenever I want, or some old Chinese guy freak out on a bus? Freedombeautytruth! The trailer for Kevin Smith’s latest movie was banned in the U.S. because it wasn’t MPAA-approved, or something like that, but people still managed to see it because it was being hosted by a U.K. site. Freedombeautytruth! I would imagine that this is going to cause a whole bunch of censorship issues which I am far too lazy to contemplate but find interesting in the abstract. Seriously, though, can I just watch some YouTube videos?
