It does to a degree. I did not realize that (Canadian only?) FTA: "The
Human Rights Act prohibits the communication of messages
over the Internet likely to expose people to hatred or contempt based on
religion or race."
WOW that is "over the top". What next, No saying hateful things in
public at all? The world is a lot worse off then I realized.
Think I will go sue all those twits (and their ISPs) on IRC that keep
calling me a Cracker (Ignoring that my nick is Crackers`n`Soup)

So, let's not get too wrapped up in "internet freedom of speech" because it
exists only in a fragile way, here in the US.
We have our own self-appointed censors... YOu'll find them applauding the
decision in Canada, and then publishing articles critical of banning kiddy
porn...
Go figure.

Is it me or is this out of line? I thought all "free" countries had
settled this
in their respective courts already?
