Censorship is a bit like taxation: knowledgeable people will tend to find ways around it, but they are not the majority. As long as the majority complies, the politicians won't be too bothered. Similar with the BPI (and vested interests in the US). All they want to do is weaken file-sharing networks by stopping PCs becoming nodes on them, to remove their critical mass.

The UK has also censored Wikipedia in the past.

Would it be ok to stop a newspaper printing and qr-links to copyrighted material illegally?

Is it all right to cencor child pornography on the internet? If it's ok to cencor one illegal thing, why not another?

yep! tunnelr?
