On Alex Jones' site, link above, he says some devastating things about plans by the establishment to impose censorship on the internet.
MySpace is, apparantly, going to be used as a tool in this. MySpace was bought by media mogul Rupert Murdoch in 2005. It is now 8th most visited site on the web. "Rupert Murdoch's battle axe for shaping a future internet environment whereby electronic dissent, whether it be against corporations or government, will not be tolerated and freedom of e-speech will cease to exist."
MySpace shuts down blogs critical of itself and of Murdoch owned companies. Murdoch recognises that conventional forms of media are outdated - can't compete with the internet. He "stressed the need to regain control of these outlets in order to prevent the establishment media empire from crumbling."
"MySpace is Rupert Murdoch's trojan horse for destroying free speech on the internet. It is a foundational keystone of the first wave of the state's backlash to the damage that a free and open internet has done to their organs of propaganda. By firstly making it cool, trendy and culturally elite for millions to flock to establishment controlled internet backbones like MySpace, Murdoch is preparing the groundwork for the day when it will stop being voluntary and become mandatory to use government and corporation monopoly controlled internet hubs."
Another stage of this is to repeatedly cause deliberate crashes of the internet, to make it seem undesirable, and to price people out of the regualar internet and into "Internet 2, a state regulated hub where permission will need to be obtained directly from an FCC or government bureau to set up a website."
