"German service cuts Net access" (to Santa Cruz)
"Germany's biggest Internet provider has blocked access to a Santa Cruz computer service that makes available neo-Nazi propaganda in another sign of the growing tension over material available on the Internet.
"Deutsche Telekom, Germany's national phone company, blocked its 1 million customers Thursday from gaining access to Internet "Web sites" maintained by customers of Web Communications of Santa Cruz.
At least my local paper got it right in the AP article they published on this... "The block - analogeous to the government ordering a bookstore to take every book by a given publisher off the shelves because it objected to one title - was imposed Thursday."

The difference is, that the German government was not ordering this block. Olmur - -- "If privacy is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy" --- P. Zimmermann Please encipher your mail!
