Blocker of Conservative Sites Identified
It seems that the blocking of "Jihad Watch" and other conservative sites was mainly the work of a "Rev." Jim Sutter, an elderly Leftist clergyman who mobilized his followers to flag and flag again sites critical of Islam. Apparently some services that list wicked sites for the benefit of business customers were more than happy to co-operate -- with an outfit called "Webwasher" being particularly quick to implement blocking. Jawa Report has details. It shows how services primarily designed to block pornography from work computers can be misused.
The latest sadly twisted post on the Rev. Jim's site says that Jihad Watch blames the London bombings on the Church of England! I wonder who the Rev. Jim thinks is to blame? George Bush, probably.
