  3. You know every one freaked about the big loophole in DNS. I say if jack tards like this ever block certain traffic, these hacks would be great to restoring the internet to what WE THE FUCKING PEOPLE want it to be.

  6. The first time someone told me that the internet was going to become restricted and 'privately' owned, I didn't believe them.
    But sadly it looks as though this is the way things are headed...
