Internet Filtering ….. Big Business?

I found this particular item today on The American Prospect while news cruising through cyberspace.

Although the issue is a legitimate one, it is interesting to realize the role played by big business in the whole scheme of things. Much of the noise surrounding Internet Filtering is being made by those who stand to gain a profit (Go figure). The point is clearly made when considering the following, as quoted from an advertisement for filtering software: \”The Internet caused the problem. It\’s only fitting it should also provide the solution.\”

One hates to rain on the parade of the Internet personifying folks out there, but isn\’t it people who are the problem? Well, read on and judge for yourself…
