Not surprising considering they were the first website to block all traffic outside the US in order to comply with copyright. Seriously the internet is a global phenomenon how the hell does it make sense to have to follow geographic restrictions. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again copyright laws are going in the wrong direction and is damaging culture. In a normal world I would be able to watch videos on MTV.com from Canada.

There a freaking “Streisand Effect” now? When the hell did THAT happen? And what is it?

Thanks. Got it. Although personally I don’t feel that Ms. Streisand deserves to be immortalized in that way. Just my opinion.

You don’t think she should be remembered for being one of the first major ignorant twats thinking they could censor the internet? If anyone deserves such a negative place in history is Streisand. Although I do think the Hubbard effect would of had a nicer ring to it.

Nah people abandoned Google years ago. It’s just tossed around as a verb like “pork”.

Kidding of course.
