    Good god, one of those sarcastic bastards who loves mentally masturbating about his superiority over the rest of the human race. You're a hundred years too early, punk.

    Let me put this very simply. I know it won't get past your ego, but I'll try anyway: Communication between two consenting adults is different than unsolicitated advertisement.

    Communication between adults therefore has certain safeguards of privacy and freedom--things fundamentally incompatible with a scheme that blocks file trading. Unsolicited advertisement does not have the same legal protections, nor has anyone (except you) ever claimed that it should. Moreover, unsolicited advertisement in the form of spam or telemarketing calls or junk faxes is generally not a thing that has been consented to by the recieving party.

    Ever been in Japan? Ever heard the vans with loud-speakers that go around town campaigning for a certain candidate? Notice how a politician in the U.S. would go to jail if he tried it. Hint: It's not censorship...
