They do think it's the same thing - unfortunately they jumped the wrong way and banned the Internet, not the Web. Can't FTP source - still not democratic. We need to find jobs overseas now, before it comes into force and "positions available" is banned....:(
Um, the article is a little misleading, then. The law refers to the Internet. Not the web. The Internet. That's the scary bit. smtp, http, ftp, gopher, telnet, you name it.... Https, ssl, anything that moves between two puters over a phone line. My personal email included, btw...
Yes. It could. It could be a very good thing for you. And for anyone else who doesn't live *here*. But I do. And I don;t want to lose my Internet because a) the lawmakers got it wrong, and b) to provide cheapskate lazy Americans with a "free" list of dubious sites. Because it's not free. It's costing me the future....
