TSA Internally Blocking Websites With 'Controversial Opinions'

Posted by Soulskill on from the less-filling-tastes-great dept.

sterlingda writes "The Transportation Security Administration is blocking certain websites from the federal agency's computers, including halting access by staffers to any Internet pages that contain a 'controversial opinion,' according to an internal email obtained by CBS News. The new rules came into force on July 1, and prevent TSA employees from accessing such content, though what is deemed 'controversial opinion' is not explained."

    What's up with so many comments like these being all over /. lately? Is this some 4chan offensive or what?
