So here's a new way that they're trying to add censorship to the internet.... - GoFuckYourself.com

Was checking around for the latest news on .xxx and saw this article.

In a nutshell...the telecoms (AT&T, Verizon etc.) would like to create a "fast lane" and a "slow lane" on the internet. Which lane you and your site reside in will be determined by whether or not you would like to pay a fee, yet to be determined.

Given the propensity for companies to charge higher fees to adult companies, I'm sure this won't be the exception.

This is something that is already before Congress.

I remember when b/w for adult sites cost more than for mainstream . . . I would not be too concerned.

BTW, we still need to meet up.

Well, I have to be out in the Valley around 7 . . . so either lunch or another day would probably be best.

My ICQ 16075497 . . . I can't initiate contact with mine

Here's a more convenient link.

It's got a form letter you can fill out and it'll automatically be sent to your respective senators and reps.
