US Government seizure of the internet has begun; DHS takes over 76 websites

(NaturalNews) As part of a new expansion of government power over information, the Department of Homeland Security has begun seizing and shutting down internet websites (web domains) without due process or a proper trial. DHS simply seizes web domains that it wants to and posts an ominous "Department of Justice" logo on the web site. See an example at http://torrent-finder.com

Over 75 websites were seized and shut down last week, and there is no indication that the government will stop such efforts. Right now, their focus is websites that they claim "violate copyrights," yet the torrent-finder.com website that was seized by DHS contained no copyrighted content whatsoever. It was merely a search engine website that linked to destinations where people could access copyrighted content. Google also links to copyrighted content -- does that mean the feds will soon seize Google, too?

These seizures were conducted on the basis of language in the DMCA law, which is vastly overreaching in its powers (it was passed to appease the music recording industry and the RIAA). Even so, the U.S. Senate is right now considering passing yet another law -- COICA -- the Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2010/11/...), a new law that would give the federal government even more power to shut down websites it opposed.

Is that not telling you something? The desire is for you NOT to know. This information was readily available just a short while ago and now they are being blocked. Prepare to see a lot more of that soon as DHS blocks and pulls info off line.

Yes, it is telling me you have posted poopy links.
Please stop assuming, and check the quality of the links you posted and make sure they are accurate.

Please & Thank you.

Someone has quite the attitude today huh? TO make it clearer, all of the info on those sites which came with the article (I did not post those links) operated fine when I posted the article. The links at some point between my posting and your clicking to read were pulled down. No poopy links..they pure and simple did not want you to see what was posted.

However you can just search under "COICA" and/or "19 US Senators who voted to censor the internet via the COICA" and get some information that may have been posted under the links. Now that the links have been disabled I can not tell you if what you will find will match exactly what was originally posted.
