And the Germans were not haters, they were depressed because of the situation. All he did was to gave them an illusion it was the Jew who were to blame.
"Hate Speech" is more powerful when people are depressed. It cannot succeed when people are happy, because they will see the bullshit.
Of course the difficult time allowed Hitler to come to power. But the "Hate Speech" made the Germans believe that the problems they had was not their fault.
He gave them the illusion it was the Jews who caused the situation. This is how "Hate Speech" can be used to manipulated the week minds.
Of course many "smart" people left Germany before it was to late, because the saw what was going to happen.

Not everyone is as smart and as experienced as Dali Lama or the Pope, most of the people don't even know the world outside their home.
Speech can be violence all you need to do is to study the psychological repercussion it may have. If you think the only violence is the physical one, well, think again.
Hitler was elected in a democratic way. He used hate speech to turn the country from a democracy to a dictatorship. EU learned the hard way, why hate speech should not be allowed by the Freedom of Speech.
People are sheep and can be turned into murderers in a couple of years. This is why we should never allow any form of violence.

In practice, the right to freedom of speech is not absolute in any country and the right is commonly subject to limitations, such as on "hate speech".
There is no 100% anonymity, like there is no 100% security. Like a bank account, if someone really wants to find you, there is a way.
Or maybe you can infect someones PC and use it as a proxy. But I guess this isn't exactly easy or legal.
As for encryption, using SSH or VPN will give you a secure enough connection.
Google is making the books searchable with one intent in mind, to know what you are searching for, so they can offer relevant ads and targeted marketing leads.
If the data is kept safe I don't mind getting relevant ads from Google, after all since I use AdBlock Plus it's not like I can see them.:)
The "counterview" would be that virtually all internet users by now know that the government is, or should be treated as being, able to look up every keystroke they have made on the internet, if the government ever wants to. I certainly use the internet with that view.
If you are that paranoid buy an offshore VPN or SSH account. And enjoy your Anonymous Coward surfing.:)

In the last democratic pool 43.9% of the population belied in Hitler.
So it was not "some". Later of course it didn't matter what was your opinion.
If it can't be used for good, why do we need it then?
In my case the Council of Europe

Everything has a beginning. Deny "Hate Speech" to Hitler and maybe he would be a nobody.
Give me one example where "Hate Speech" can be used for good.
He is a Troll, he is not supposed to argue within the context.
I feel your pain, it's pointless. He is so closed minded that you are either black or white.
He can't understand all the implications between two sides.
And the Germans were not haters, they were depressed because of the situation. All he did was to gave them an illusion it was the Jew who were to blame.

I'll defend freedom at any time. But you are free as long as YOUR freedom does not limit MY freedom.
Hate speech is a psychological violence.
Besides what good it is to allow "Hate speech", what do we gain by allowing it?
I know someone extends it and abuse the immunity it can gain, but don't fight the good ideas, fight the abuse.
Here is a link to the Soviet story.

Left or right doesn't matter. When "Hate Speech" is allowed people die.
As a matter of fact, Stalin killed much more people then Hitler.
And if you don't understand how people can be turned into murderers, watch again the story of Stalin and Hitler.
Of course I blame censorship, I would be mad if I wouldn't. All I'm saying is that "Hate Speech" should never be allowed in "Freedom of Speech".
The Nazi Party was elected in a democratic way. So get your facts.

How much will they cost?
There is no greater wealth than wisdom, no greater poverty than ignorance; no greater heritage than culture and no greater support than consultation
It is a shame that most people understand absolutely nothing about quality and keep spending their money for crap they don't need.
Are we really moving toward Idiocracy (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387808/)?
As today (1.9.2009) my ISP has updated the Internet prices.

No bandwidth limitation or throttling. Also no P2P related case was seen in a court (yet?).
I know, it sucks to be in a 3rd world Internet country like USA. I feel your pain.

I'm worried where the US is going.
