So, Verizon tried to not let any pro-life text messages go through, but backed down once we all noticed. Corporate censorship is real, and text-messages are not even “protected” (via “common carrier status”) in the same way as normal speech. They only voluntarily stopped censoring, so that they can reserve the power to do so later. This is evil.

JOURNAL: Fun with MySpace – Satanic bulletin sent in response to rash of Christian bulletins
Posted by Clint under Complaints, Computer, Journal, People, People That Annoy Me, Politics, Religion[35] Comments
So, I got really tired of all my Christian acquaintances sending out religious MySpace bulletins. I don’t want freakin’ prayers and bulletins informing me that, GASP, Christ died 2000 years ago, and only 3% of people are going to repost the bulliten. (Are you?)
