It may contain improper references to self-published sources. Tagged since February 2008. Most of those tags are due to the use of Scientology's own web sites as references on the page. i.e. they aren't WP:Reliable Sources except in very narrow uses and they're not third-party secondary sources. A lot of unsourced Scientology fluffy PR needs to be combed off of the article.

I thought they'd gone under after jumping the shark.
Oh hey, they were also first in line (standing beside the RIAA and MPAA) to extend the length of copyrights too. (Does the name Sonny Bono ring a bell, or tree?) Their court cases against ISPs were used as foundations for the DMCA, and they were the first to use the DMCA as an attack tool to down sites, remove them from search engines and expose the identity of anonymous posters.
Scientology has always been leaders in the abuse of the Internet, laws and the court system.

Beer as the foundation of interstellar trade. Is there anything that it can't do?

And a Happy Dead Hubbard Day to you too!
UFO cult or money making scam? It's a dessert topping and a floor wax!
