   Well, since you asked. I agree that the site should join the shutdown too. But, i agree with Parminder, the US has entirely too much influence on what happens on the 'net. I believe we should begin to think about how to run potentially censored sites, even if local governments would acquiesce to Record Companies (in this case), shutting down differing points of view.
