AOL, actually). The comapnies that own the phone/cable/t1 lines along with corpriate sponsors could have a real stranglehold on information on the internet if they wanted.

tell me which international body controls every country in the world? which country is able to stop information from being put on websites within it's own borders (punishing people and shutting down websites does not stop the information from first getting on there). The fact is that once information is on the net it gets coppied and duplicated many times, even moreso if it is information that is likely to be removed. Why is it the movie industry is unable to stop every film they release from ending up on the net, dispite it being illegal in almost every nation in the world?
