Yeah it seem so in America according to the NNSquad (net neutrality) email group that western countries are entering the world of restrictive middle eastern countries.

Sadly in the UK we seem to be heading the same way.

Its very sad that politicians are so old/ignorant that they do not understand

to the net that they get.
