Look man, I get it. But if the hackers went in and destroyed every known copy of the film, preventing it from ever being seen, then I would agree with you that a foreign entity suppressed our rights.

OK, semantics.

My point is that we are ALLOWING a foreign government to censor our media. Of course we don't have to allow that to happen, but the fact that this hasn't spiked outrage in this country really shows just how far we've fallen.

I apologize if my comments are too aggressive. Not meaning to be a dick, just pissed.

Wonder if we'll get a new ePATRIOT Act out of all this.
