The Internet Revolution Is A Liberty Revolution
Until the late 1990s, individuals interested in Austrian economics, US constitutional history and libertarian philosophy had few sources of information. They had to spend hours scouring used book stores or the back pages of obscure libertarian periodicals to find the great works of Mises, Rothbard, Hayek and other giants of liberty. Local library and university collections ignored libertarian politics and
economics.
Today, however, the greatest classics of libertarian thought, libertarian philosophy and libertarian economics are available instantly to anyone with Internet access. Thanks to the Internet, it is easier than ever before for liberty activists to spread news and other information regarding the evils of government power and the benefits of freedom. For the first time in human history, supporters of liberty around the world can share information across borders quickly and cheaply. Without the filter of government censors, this information emboldens millions to question governments and promote liberty.
This is why liberty-minded Americans must do everything possible to oppose − and stop − government
attempts to censor or limit the free flow of information online.

Its EXTREMELY difficult to oppose all the attempts to censor/hide/control information when there are SO many people who think the government has our (we, the people) interests at heart. They do not. What they are interested in are taxes, suppression of information, and control of information. I guarantee there are millions of sheep who who cheer wildly if the government said no one can access the internet without their PERMISSION and, of course, a fee. Both of which are completely in the realm of possibility.
