    November 11th, starting at 11am GMT, for 24 hours, we declare the internet closed for business.

    Surely keeping slashdot ONLINE is better for halting the internet? :) Seriously though, the EU are very pro open source, especially Germany. Why would they shoot themselves in the foot by helping commercial offerings and hindering free ones?
