Another example of censorship is blocking the access to the websites 
outside of us for unskewed information. For example, Al Jazeera during 
the height of the Iraqi war. (Now the access is "enabled" to the parts 
not censored out.)

A friend of mine, Born and bread here in New Orleans, was trying to keep 
up with the real information from the region, and was unable to get it 
directly from US. He had to go via proxy servers in other countries in 
order to access the website.

PS. hmm new word....  I had to look up the word "insidious" from the web....
