South Korea censoring the Net
http://j.mp/N9qIi6 (New York Times)
"A government critic who called the president a curse word on his
Twitter account found it blocked. An activist whose Twitter posting
likened officials to pirates for approving a controversial naval base
was accused by the navy of criminal defamation. And a judge who wrote
that the president ("His Highness") was out to "screw" Internet users
who challenged his authority was fired in what was widely seen as
retaliation."
