More "for the children" invasive bullshit. Less privacy and more government intrusion is not what voters want out of bipartisanship.

I'm somewhat heartened by what happened with SOPA, but the ongoing attempts to remove constitutional protections "because it's the internet" are not a sign that things are going in the right direction.

Many american states are right now making laws to persecute LGBT people and women who have abortions, and anyone believes associating personal ID to every post is a good idea?

The kind of stuff people try to push in name of "protecting the children" is wild.
