There is no censorship. AOL has something like 20 million subscribers
and none of them post to any of the newsgroups I subscribe to. AOL
users are generally considered to be slightly stupider than webtv
users and I for one couldn't care less if they are kicked off Usenet
by their online service. 

AOL users should get a real internet service if they are worried about
losing Usenet but in any case they could access it through Google
groups. AOL might be making a very wise decision by cutting off access
to Usenet through their poorly regarded newsgroup reader. Lots of
child pornography and other loathsome material is available through
Usenet servers such as Shaw and hopefully parents, legal guardians,
and the RCMP and FBI will punish the providers, prosecute and imprison
the makers and levy a huge monetary penalty.

As for censorship: All Hells Angels are child raping scumbags and
hopefully the House Of Chocalates will be the target of a poisoning
same as the pickle jars at Western Grocers and Super-Valu. Remember
street punks stealing a car with HA support stickers is way cool and
the cops might drop charges if they see fit to put tracking and
listening devices inside the vehicles once they are recovered.
