Community Choice Award "Most Likely to be Shut Down By Govt"

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the make-your-sarcastic-vote-heard dept.

Last week we took nominations for a Slashdot category at the SourceForge Community Choice awards. Our category was 'Most Likely to be Shut Down By Government Agency'. Your nominations were tallied, and we arbitrarily selected a few that we think are the best. Today is the day where you can at long last determine the winner, using the incredibly scientifically accurate Slashdot Poll. Our nominees are Truecrypt, EFF Patent Busting, GNU Software Radio, WikiLeaks, Cryptome.org, Tor, Freenet, and CowboyNeal.

  1. Most likely to be shut down by the government? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 5, Funny

    Slashdot of course!

  2. So I'm guessing by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 5, Funny

    TrueCrypt has already changed it's name to TueCrypt to avoid pursuit.

  3. **AA by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 5, Funny

    I've lost track. Is the **AA is counted as a government agency, or is the government counted as an **AA agency? Can anyone clarify?

  4. Re:what? by MonsterTrimble · · Score: 5, Funny

    Was I the only one who punched in http://www.cowboyneal.com/ and got blocked because it's a porn site?
