this particular article focuses entirely on drugs, legal and illegal. the
questions raised here is: should people be allowed to talk about drugs
(unless they are the gubermint)? and what if they get it wrong or promote
illegal drugs? all in all this article raises some pretty complex issues
that have little or nothing to do with the current filtering discussion
(altho you could argue that 'bad' drug sites should be filtered; they
rarely are).
it also points out the gubermint sites don't know how to work the search
engines -- freevibe is a case in point. lacking metadata, it is invisible.
my discussion with the folks from Yahoo! and Google were entirely about
sex sites showing up when you searched for strings like 'big bang'
