In defence of free speech.

The background to This article is that a US hosting company was issued a legal notice by the UK government because they didn't like what one of the sites hosted.

The note begins thus: "Free speech is a funny thing. A lot of people are for it, as long as it’s for them. An awful lot of people lose interest in principles when someone says something they don’t like".

Splendid!
