My apologies to all for this, specially to those who already know about this and those who think too little of it. I am really worried about this: http://americancensorship.org/ If these rootless people get control of what goes through the root servers, we will loose the last free medium of expression and info exchange that is not owned by a corporation or anybody. I don't know if I should be worried or not, but if my worries are founded and this comes to pass, as far as I can see, it will be the end of this great tool as we know it today. There is a petition going on here: http://www.avaaz.org/en/save_the_internet/ There are a lot of Americans on this list that have a lot more power than the rest of us to change this. A LOT of people from all over the world is signing this petition. I hope at least some don't judge me to be over dramatic here but this situation sounds very much so. I hope that most of you (if not all) replicates this and that I don't get scalded for this post. I can only hope .... -- Mario Lobo http://www.mallavoodoo.com.br FreeBSD since 2.2.8 [not Pro-Audio.... YET!!] (99% winblows FREE)
