Big Brother is on Your Back!

After reading CommonDreams.org's article "Big Brother is Blocking," I started thinking of how phone companies could possibly disrupt the free flow of information independent journalists share.

Some of the best and most up-to-date journalism would be censored, maybe even non-existent. Big Brother needs to know:

"Should your cell phone company decide who can send you a text message? Should your Internet service provider block your Internet movie because it doesn't like the file-sharing service you're using?"
