I say that since they so want the be an active participant in the information that flows through their system, they should no longer be granted immunity under the Communications Decency Act for the content of that information. Their original argument for the granting of immunity was that it would be impossible to monitor all the data - the process of impeding certain traffic implies a certain amount of monitoring of that traffic.

Thus, I believe that if their “freedom of expression’ argument is found to be valid, that Time Warner Cable should be held liable for any consequences when I say that I read over their internet service that Glenn Beck raped and killed a girl in 1990.

Really I think it’s all bullshit, but if they’re going to make what amount of obviously ridiculous arguments, then I think they should be held to the strictest interpretations of the consequences of those ridiculous arguments.

Also, corporate personhood is retarded and needs to be disemboweled.

WE MAKE VIDEOS:

We are three internet hobos riding the rails of digital refuse, navigating through the brambles, backwoods, and country roads. Adventure! Huddled around this campfire we share stories of our journeys. We make videos from videos, from computers for computers, of the people, by the people, for the people. We can even make stuff for you, if you are into that sort of thing. Reordering reality since 2005.
