Don't know if this really belongs in the main area, but I just want people to see this, cuz this is grinding my gears because it's so stupid.

Apparently, some people have WAY too much spare time and take the "God Squad" bit a little too far. I'm talking about the people who run Net Authority. Basically, their job is to point out sites and label them offensive and try to remove them from the internet so that children and god fearing citizens are free to roam the web without having to deal with pornography, depravity or blasphemy. According to them, they have created their own Acceptable Use Policy and expect the entire internet to adhere to it. They have also put 1671 sites into their database of offenders, and some of them you have to wonder why they are even in there. I'm not gonna say anymore, just have a look for yourself.

Even Gaia is listed on their database as having Pornographic material, hateful material, offensive political material, blasphemous material, and material that contains bestiality and or interracial relationships.

EDIT: ....just delete this.....it's a joke....and I fell for it....I feel like such an a** now.

Sorry to say, but while it would be hilarious if it was real, but it's been exposed as a hoax.

It's kinda obvious when they have 'netauthority.org' on their 'unacceptable' list.
