I don't see how not wanting personal information to be posted for the world to see is considered censorship. That's the problem I have with the poll-not necessarily the results but them categorizing that as censorship. I doubt that the numbers would change if you replaced blog with news broadcast, newspaper, or any other non-official source of information. And as for much of that info being public knowledge, it is accessable by request, but oftentimes a need must be shown, or you need to at least be in the vicinity of the individual you are requesting information on. It's not a censorship issue, its a privacy issue. But saying "Most American's favor people's right to privacy" doesn't show Americans in as negative a light. Biased surveys 4tw!
