UK ministers will order ISPs to block terrorist and extremist websites
http://j.mp/1fMvofe (Guardian)
"The government is to order broadband companies to block extremist
websites and empower a specialist unit to identify and report content
deemed too dangerous for online publication. The crime and security
minister, James Brokenshire, said on Wednesday that measures for
censoring extremist content would be announced shortly. The initiative
is likely to be controversial, with broadband companies already
warning that freedom of speech could be compromised."

Maybe also try block sites of political critics? No matter, a thousand
proxies will bloom, for good or ill. That's the reality, like it or
not.
