Free Speech Is Not An Olympic Sport

by evanmcmurry

The London Olympics are attempting to prohibit links to their website unless you’re being nice about the London Olympics. Via Deadspin:

That’s right, they’re declaring it illegal to, say, claim the London Olympics shit on the concept of free speech. Or to say the London Olympics engage in bullshit catering to mega-corporations while telling small businesses to fuck off. And you definitely shouldn’t say the London Olympics have led people to fear for their lives as military missile installations are placed on their roof.

Good luck to them. The internet is very difficult place to lock down, as, sometimes, is London.
