perlmonger: (1984)
From the comments to this:
I for one would happily support the imposition of stringent new restrictions on civil liberties, as long as they specified that any idiot who says “If you’ve got nothing to hide, you’ve got nothing to fear” was automatically locked up for the rest of their lives, on the grounds that their crushing stupidity represented a danger to public safety.

perlmonger: (books censorship)
[livejournal.com profile] nerdware pointed me at Amnesty International‘s irrepressible.info campaign. If you give a fuck about freedom (and if you don’t, what are you doing here?), go sign their pledge and, if you’ve got a non-LJ web site you can stuff a fragment of javascript code upon, add a fragment of text that someone, somewhere doesn’t want people to read onto your pages.

Can’t demo here, because of LJ’s security filtering, but you can see an example on my personal home page.
