The same reasoning can > apply to those sites. some of that is done in certain localities, for instance, I believe singapore still requires ISP's to block their monthly 'top 100' sites... in general, it's my belief, that folks using the web should make that censorship decision for themselves, gov'ts or ISP's shouldn't make that call. Unfortunately, gov'ts often like to impose their will's on their citizens.
