Cyber Censorship

32

The government has been wrestling with the whole free speech and internet filtering controversy for a while now. A group called PeaceFire has put together software to circumvent software like Net Nanny and Cybersurfer. They released it for free.

Porn-blocking Web filters from Net Nanny, CyberSitter, and five other companies can be disabled with a program released Monday by anti-filtering group Peacefire, the group claims.  The program, available as a free download at the Peacefire Web site, was released in reaction to expected federal mandates for Web filters on school and library computers.
