99% of censorship happens on blog comments. This kind of project would help to force an open dialog.

If we aren't going on the offensive against censorship we will lose eventually. The power is in the hands of those who control the message. And those who control the media control the message. This would allow us to break through the shit and get a counter-message out right on their own websites.

There is a way to accomplish this.

Also, we need to start thinking about message control, not just governments blocking certain sites. The elites fear the internet and anonymity because of the possibility of losing control of the message/ the dialog ,whatever you want to call it.

Putting the message in the hands of the people is the best thing that could ever happen for US and the worst thing for them.
