Canadian ISPs Plan Net Censorship
"It's beyond censorship, it is killing the biggest ecosystem of free expression and freedom of speech that has ever existed," I Power spokesperson Reese Leysen said. I Power was the first group to report on the possible changes. Bell Canada has not returned calls or emails.

It won't work. New ISPs will have the same motivation to allow access anywhere - money. No one is going to subscribe to that garbage.

That would be because the webmaster didn't renew the domain, took it offline or changed the url. It would have nothing to do with an ISP.

I just checked his website (which is still operating and not delisted by the ISP conspiracy btw). It's quite evident that he's a complete wackjob.

An opinion is one thing. Claiming to have knowledge of everything on the planet is another. I see his "book issue" is a Canadian suing him for defamation of character. That's what you get for pretending to know it all, calling people crooks/liars and have no actual real evidence to back it up.

Who banned him? Do you have a link to it?

One of the things I noticed on his website was his post about landing in Montreal and being harrassed. Ya right, it's called going through customs. I suspect anyone making eye contact with him would undoubtedly be members of CSIS in his eyes.

I don't know, where are my books? Not everyone is automatically successfull in book publishing/selling.

Where is the evidence that his book has been banned.

That's worth what ... a two-four and a half now? (how can you tell I haven't bought in a while?)

Moderator beer huh? Sometimes out cold might be the better option when dealing with the unruly in here. You've a lot more patience than most sites. A hearty thumbs up to you all!
