Just go read this post from mephron. I don't know who he is, but you have to read it.

Un-F'ing-believable.



Actually, she's kinda hot. (I believe that's the point.)

My problem with this story is not that I imagine that any of the petty thieves or petty censors would be backed up by any authority - it is a veritable certainty that they would not.

My problem is that reports of such things are making people afraid to carry certain books on certain occasions. Our mindscape is being terroformed[*] by fear of people low on the chain of command.

I had to look twice at your word...

"terrorformed" might be better: either way it's a good word for what this sort of thing does.

Because of terror or FOR terror?

I wouldent say all this is being done because of the whole terror thing but more along the lines of power lust. Lackeys want power and they have been given more control than ever before over the general public. And abuse is bound to happen. And although this is not the place for general politics it WAS bush who authorized these people to have much more power than is really needed. People want more power always so they make whomever is below them fear something or the other so they trust and rely on that person.

Thi is not being done BECAUSE of terror but to proliferate terror. Thats my opinion on this, hopefully I wont be too shouted at for voicing it.
