Ebaumsworld is being forced to censor quite a lot of its contents. It is meant as a humourous site, and although there are many people out there who do not share the same humour, you are not being forced to watch it. But even if you don't find then content amusing, to censor it is clearly a restraint on freedom of speech.

You can visit ebaumsworld's press release at:
http://www.ebaumsworld.com/irlb_censorship.html

It lists some websites that are lashing out against websites that are deemed too harmful. You can email/protest to them via the link.


...remember, remember, the 5th of november?

Although it is very strange to see that, even after April Fool's Day, the site is still saying that it's being censored.

I'm starting to think it's not a prank after all.

Just look at the link on the ebaumsworld page... irlb.org. Not only does it look like anything but a government site, it's .org, not .gov. It's definately an elaborate joke, like www.fvza.org
