funfail writes "Thousands of Turkish demonstrators poured into central Istanbul yesterday to protest against the government's Internet censorship. New regulations from Turkey's Internet Technologies and Communications Authority set to come into effect on Aug. 22 will require Internet service providers to offer a choice of four filtering options: family, child, domestic or standard. Many websites are expected to be blocked as a result of the filtering measures."

    These are REAL men not like the wieners who threaten rebellion and repost that "tree of liberty" quote from Jefferson while sitting in their parent's basement with their cheetos-encrusted fingers typing at their computer. Take not Slashtards, this is how you get the government to listen to you and care. Posting crap on Slashdot where none of them are going to ever read or even know about it is for pansies. If you had real balls show it by standing up in person instead of hiding behind your Internet pseudonym.
