Canadian Domain Registry Pulls Plug on Free Speech

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the surprised-we-haven't-seen-that-here dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The staff of a Canadian political candidate bragged today that he had managed to shut down a website critical of his involvement in a fundraising scandal, by having the country's registrar of domains pull the DNS records for the site. Criticism from bloggers and free speech advocates has been negative, and is coming from across the political spectrum."
