We saw it rear it's ugly head just a few years ago when CRT, the governing body for Canadian radio and tv standards, banned the playing of "Money for Nothing" by Dire Straits because of the word 'faggot' in the lyrics. That ban was instigated by ONE complaint, from a guy in Newfoundland if I recall correctly.

Turn a blind eye and they'll eventually come for your sites and content too. Think it can't happen?
