Pennsylvania Refuses to Disclose Banned Website List

koehn writes "In an interesting turn of events, the Attorney General of Pennsylvania has ordered all PA ISPs to block sites that have child porn. If that's not bad enough, they won't tell you which sites those are because - so the excuse goes - that could be construed as 'disseminating pornography.' So much for public review, huh?" See the previous story.

  1. Actually Troll, by Sevn · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Pennsylvania rocks for many reasons. Don't take one
    lame law and your experience with Harrisburg and
    label my state a "shithole" you arrogant fuckwad.
    Why don't you just go the whole pathetic route
    and craft up a "Pennsylvania is dieing" troll while
    you are at it. I've lived all over this country in
    the past 20 years, and I always come back here at
    some point for some very important reasons.

    #1 I don't have to lock my fucking doors at night
    because crime isn't an issue.

    #2 The education opportunities here are
    incredible

    #3 There is a bubble of positive economy in many
    areas that isn't effected much by the rest of
    the country.

    #4 The cost of living is low, but the quality of
    living is outstanding.

    #5 The cops aren't assholes.

    #6 You don't have to pay a premium for good
    service with a smile like you do just about
    ANYWHERE else I've been. It's EXPECTED.

    #7 Some of the best Italian food "in my area
    anyway" in the US. Period.

    #8 Excellent nightlife without a shitload of lame
    scenesters trying to pretend they are in L.A.

    #9 Perfect place to raise a family.

    #10 It's own deep history and culture. America
    started here moron.

    So just because you were too lame to enjoy
    yourself here in "Pennsyltucky" doesn't mean
    anybody else wouldn't be able to see past your
    bullshit and truly enjoy themselves in this small
    piece of heaven. Just because NY and LA are the
    only things you see on television doesn't mean
    it's the only way to live you pompous twit.

    For every annoying gentoo user, are three even more annoying anti-gentoo crybabies. Take Yosh from #Gimp for example.

    >Iraqi child porn sites are obviously in jeopardy, but beyond that I'm not sure the AG has much power

    Why do you think the US are invading Iraq ?

    ::Basks in beautifull 80* weather with my top down yesterday::

    Nah that's all right, I like my priorities where they are - far the fuck away from PA.

    (but you do have me on Penn State football, I guess there is _one_ good thing up there, Joe Pa would strike me down if he heard me talking shit about State College)
