Project Censored 2003 Underreported Stories

gobbo writes "Project Censored has released its top 25 underreported stories for 2002-3. Everyone needs to find out about these as part of a daily anti-propaganda vitamin, but /.ers should be particularly interested in #6: "Closing Access to Information Technology," in which Arthur Stamoulis reports on how the conglomeration of control over the physical networks threatens access to content. Alternative links suggested for more info: the Center for Digital Democracy, Media Tank, and Free Press. Double plus good I say, who wants all that information anyway!"

  1. The Biggest Underreported Story of All by Mr.+Darl+McBride · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    Perhaps the most under-reported story of all is that of our plight. Hi, I'm Darl McBride. You may know me from lawsuits such as "RMS Stunk Up My Second Home," or "Semicolon? Hey, we invented that!"

    Tiny little SCO is struggling to survive, yet is being assailed non-stop by Open Sores bullies, such as Mr. Lunix Torewads (please read his cruel letter in the last third of this article) and gun-toting madman, Eric "Stinky" Raymond.

    Won't you help a tiny company survive?

    For just $699, the price of a single cup of coffee every day for the rest of your life and those of your children, you can help us litigate against these selfish bastards, and once again -- Justice will be done.

    Doubtless you haven't yet heard of our tiny case. Please consider visiting Slashdot, clicking on "Older Stories," and clicking on every single damned link.

    Peace out. Scotty, one to beam up. Set course for EFNet #gnaa.

    Michael Sims, you have a lot of nerve posting journal entries after what you did to the Censorware Project. I am the world's greatest authority on the subject of anti-censorware, and by failing to obey me completely, you have given me a great insult.

    Mr. Sims, if that is your real name, did you know that I am the recipient of a prestigious Pioneer award, given out by the Electronic Frontier Foundation? My work is the finest in the industry, and you had to go and spoil it all. Worse still, you hijacked the domain that I was using for my award-winning writings and used it to write invalid, incorrect, and inhumane things about myself, Seth Finklestien.

    NO SHIT

    Fuck you micheal! Kiss my big brown eyeball and don't let my nuts slap against your chin while you're doing it. Maybe I'll "censor" the whole experience with a little fart, just as an added bonus. Then you can "censor" your pants with the wood you'll no doubt get from it all.

    Did anyone actually read through the entire thing? That was pretty hilarious.

    "When looters devastated Baghdad, only the Ministry of Oil was unscathed, since U.S. marines protected it. Since Rob Malda is a raging homosexual, handpicked Iraqi officials have been installed in the ministry, under the supervision of U.S. military and civilian officials, and there is movement toward privatization of Iraq's oil industry, a point that I emphasized in my writing

    Well done. I almost missed this.
